Hayden Foxe
John Quinns professional and scientific approach together with his knowledge and hands on training gave me the confidence to continue to play soccer at a professional level.
Without Johns programe there is no doubt in my mind that I would have been forced to retire. Hayden played for West Ham and Portsmouth and Leeds United in the Premier League. He also played for Perth Glory in the A League and was a socceroo.

As an elite athlete you require dedication and commitment to succeed in your chosen field, but to do it on your own is nearly impossible. In Quinny I had a coach who shared the same dedication and commitment to our goal, and while there was a lot of hard work, we had a great time achieving as a team.

Cathy Freeman
...his motivational speech to us (at the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games) was given in his typical, low key, relaxed fashion. Quinny has one of the best temperaments for a coach I've seen... for once there seemed a genuine hope about a positive result for an Australian relay team

James Hird
...he is passionate about what he does...when I had my injuries in 1999, 2000, 2001, Quinny worked with me day in and day out. His commitment went beyond what was required. He helped me to the point where I was back playing footy and confident in my own body. It's unlikely that I would be where I am without him...

Nova Peris
At the Sydney Olympics Quinney became more than a coach, he became my mentor. His enthusiasm and passion to see individuals achieve their absolute best saw our 4x400m team break a 21 year old National Record and into an Olympic final.
His motivation and personal belief in me, gave me the utmost feeling of complete faith in my ability to perform, and in doing so, I achieved personal bests and accomplished a life time dream
