Patrick G. Daniels, M.Ed., didn’t choose to coach through chaos; chaos chose him.

In 2009, Multiple Sclerosis took away his ability to demonstrate skills and control every detail on the court. What looked like the end of his coaching career became the beginning of something more powerful: a philosophy that athletes don’t need perfect coaches, they need coaches who teach them to adapt when storms hit.

That realization became Coach the Storm.

Over 35 years, Patrick has coached more than 600 match victories, assisted in nine state championships, and fifteen league titles at both the college and high school levels. However, his real wins are not in the trophy case. They’re the athletes who learned to reset in 60 seconds, the teams that chose trust over talent, and the players who discovered they were tougher than they thought.

After surviving MS, cancer, MRSA, and a stroke, Patrick rebuilt his coaching around one truth: the storm isn’t something to avoid – it’s where greatness is forged.
