Case Summary:
In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Soccer Referee from Northern Ireland in the field of Soccer Refereeing. He has performed in this high-pressure field at an international level, experience that has successfully prepared him to be a mentor and educator of others who wish to reach a similar level of success. His strong background in international competition refereeing has allowed his work to be particularly recognized by his peers and international media alike. He is especially well respected by his peers for his ability to mentor and develop younger referees.
