"Gary's knowledge and experience in his pro footballing career made him an outstanding coach but it was his personable skills, patience, approachability, humour and calm manner that made him the best coach. Gary understood our son, nurtured him, pushed him and kept his head high when times were tough. He played an instrumental part in Calum signing his first professional contract. If you want a mentor and someone who will totally invested and want you to succeed as much as you do then Gaz is your man."

“I signed Gary for Inverness Caley Thistle in 2011 and he became an institution at the club. His strengths were evident; brave,
honest, fiercely determined, resilient, intelligent and extremely communicative. He would never shirk a challenge. He set a
standard of professionalism that raised the level of consistency required to improve the squad. I watched him develop into a
cornerstone of the team. He is honest, totally committed and trustworthy, plus extremely hardworking and diligent.”

"Training with GW5 has transformed my game. Gary's personalised approach and attention to detail have helped me improve my performance significantly. I benefitted from the additional sessions alongside my team sessions to support me to improve on my own game as well as become a better leader on the pitch."
Sebastian Tremarco - Academy football player
My experience with Gary as my coach and mentor have been of the highest level. His level of detail during sessions is clear to see. That mixed with variety of training drills is exactly what I wanted. You can tell he has played the game professionally due to the way he conducts himself and related to me and others is engaging. Off the pitch Gary helped me massively, guiding me to make positive life choices, managing me through tough injuries and all in all being there for me when I needed it most.
