“One Team One Mission” - 2024 McCoy 12U
Paul Mack is a first-year assistant coach for the Webster Xtreme McCoy 12U team. He moved to the Webster area in 2013 with his wife Meghan who is originally from the Pittsford area. He has two daughters, Emma age 12 (McCoy 12U) and Hadley age 9. Paul played baseball growing up, but his main focus was soccer. He played for Arlington High School, located in Poughkeepsie NY. After graduation he played for Hartwick College in Oneonta NY. Paul’s objective with regard to winning is that winning can be an important goal, but it is not the only meter of success. Ultimately, overall player development is key. His objective about helping athletes is to have fun, that they should enjoy the game time and effort that they are putting into playing, rather than a burden. Having fun will keep them interested and willing to work towards individual and team goals. As for helping athletes develop physically, psychologically, and socially is that their development in these areas is very important and helping them achieve their best success in each of them will be the main points of emphasis. When situations arise in which I must choose among these 3 objectives (winning, fun, and development) my priorities will be that I will do whatever I feel is best for the player in the long term, therefore their overall development as a person.
Hello, My name is Mark Palamone and I have been a Webster Xtreme Assistant Coach for 4 plus years. I have 2 daughters that are currently playing for Webster Xtreme. Addy is on the 2nd year 10U Gill Team and Ava who I coach is on the McCoy 12U Team. I also have a son Luke who is 8 years old and is playing for the Webster Wolves. Originally from Pittsburgh, PA, I moved here in 2007 as my wife Jaime is originally from West Irondequoit. We live in Webster. My coaching theories revolve around teaching and excelling in the fundamentals, having fun and exemplifying discipline and humility. I have played numerous sports growing up and in school. I played baseball from tee ball until I was 18, as well as basketball, running Cross Country and Track which I excelled in well into College. I attended Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Pa where I acquired my B.A. in Business Administration/ Corporate Communications. I am a Territory Sales Manager for Georgia Pacific. When I'm not coaching, I'm heavily involved in all our kids' activities and schedules. I'm also an avid golfer. I look forward to seeing the growth in our teams talents annually as they continue to grasp what we as coaches teach them. We have a successful group of girls who are excelling through our Xtreme program and are learning some valuable life lessons along the way.
