Justin Commins is an NCAA national champion and school record holding soccer goal keeper, and a coach of amateur soccer teams in the Los Angeles area. Following a losing season (1 win, 15 losses), Justin and the other coaches adapted lessons from the SRTS app to change the mindset of each player and of the team.
