Andy Costin
High Performance Specialist
Meet Andy Costin
I’m an Australian high-performance sport specialist based in Jenks, Oklahoma, with an extensive international background across Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. My career spans roles as a Strength & Conditioning Coach, Head of Sport Science, and Head of Performance in elite youth academies and top-tier professional soccer within the UK and US football pyramids.
My philosophy centers on individualized athlete development. By integrating data-driven insights with a strengths-focused coaching framework, I help athletes maximize their physical potential and reach their long-term goals.
Outside of sport performance, I’m an avid fan of AFL and NFL, a keen runner, golfer, and surfer — and most importantly, a dad enjoying life in the American Midwest with my family.

Sport Science & Data Integration Consulting — helping teams select, set up, and practically use performance technology (GPS, heart rate, load monitoring, testing) without drowning in data.
Performance Department Audits & Strategy — evaluating existing strength & conditioning or sport science setups to improve structure, staff workflow, and athlete outcomes.

-
For club parents, youth teams, and schools.
“Navigating the Youth Sports Journey” — educational seminars demystifying youth physical growth, load management, recovery strategies, nutrition basics, and long-term athletic health.
Data-Informed Training for Athletes — teaching young athletes how to track their own recovery, understand physical testing, and take ownership of their personal athletic growth.
Every athlete, team, and organization is different — explore the four ways I can help below.
Every engagement starts with a conversation
Because every athlete, team, and organization is different, coaching and consulting arrangements are built around your specific goals, timeline, and level of support — from single sessions to season-long partnerships. Reach out for a proposal tailored to you.
