Episode 03: Phillip Buffington, Jackson Academy
Players are always influenced by their coaches, and some of those players turn into the coaches who then start the cycle all over again. One such coach is Jackson Academy's Phillip Buffington who has a storied playing career and an incredible influence inside the Mississippi Soccer circles (Seriously, almost everyone knows "Buff" as they call him).
In Episode 3, Phillip Buffington walks us through what he wishes every new coach would know and important it is to build relationships with players and their families. Without a relationship established, it's nearly impossible to be honest and transparent and just as impossible to grow.
Hosted by award winning podcaster Robert Chapman, the Mississippi Soccer Channel was created to help broaden the network of players, coaches, parents and fans across the Magnolia State, shedding light on the quality local programs, competitive club teams, public and private school teams, and collegiate teams that span numerous associations.
