About William Fields

I am a former Professional Football journeyman(CFL,AFL) looking to build up a strong background and experience in business, athletic administration, Scouting, coaching in football and/or football operations to go along with a well developed educational resume. I’m a highly motivated and enthusiastic team player. Expert at film analysis and player development specializing, but not limited to the defensive secondary. I am an individual that excels in high pressure situations and relishes the technical aspects of football and coaching. I desire a position that utilizes my education and skill set, placing me in an environment that allows for growth and the enhancement of my professional skills. My background as a player who contributed to all phases of the game at the highest level along with my strong and creative writing ability allows me to paint clear and vivid pictures of these athletes, all making for more sound decisions whether dealing with the NFL Draft, NFL or CFL Free Agency, and/ or practice roster shuffling. I am passionate about this game and feel that I have more to contribute to it now that my playing days are behind me. In addition to my scouting passion, I also work individually with high school/ college athletes on strength, agility and skill development along with serving as a defensive back coach at Cypress Christian School in Houston, Texas • Leadership / Management • Coaching / Mentoring • Sponsorship Development / Partnerships Communications • Team building • Strategic Planning • Event Planning • Continuous Process Improvement Computer Skills: Hudl and DvSport software, MSWord, Microsoft Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel
