I've gathered information on quarterback coaches in southern
California. Some of these coaches are associated with football camps,
but all are highly regarded as private tutors, as well. This isn't a
long list, since quarterback coaches are not abundant, but I think
you'll agree that quality is more important than quantity, and all
these men have outstanding references and backgrounds.

STEVE CLARKSON
"[Steve] Clarkson, perhaps the most accomplished of a new breed of
private athletic coaches, tutors athletes from junior high onward.
Often they stick with him even after they've won college scholarships;
they come back to consult during vacations.
Clarkson is not alone. Individualized instruction for athletes, once
limited to individual sports such as tennis, has become a national
phenomenon in team sports, too, particularly for basketball, baseball
and soccer players.
Jim Clausen is a believer. He has seen Clarkson turn two of his sons
into major-college quarterbacks. Though Clarkson is called a coach or
guru, Clausen gives him another title. 'He's a dream-maker,' says
Clausen, an insurance executive in Granada Hills, Calif., whose two
older sons are Division I-A quarterbacks."

CHRIS SAILER
"Former UCLA All-America kicker Chris Sailer, who works with kickers
in the Orange County and Los Angeles area, also is swamped.
'I have more lessons than I have time,' he said. 'I'm turning down kids.'
The reputations of private coaches like Sailer and quarterbacks coach
Steve Calhoun, a former standout in European professional leagues, are
well known way beyond the Orange Curtain...
Few private coaches have as much influence on players getting Division
I scholarships as Sailer. With limited time and resources to scout
high school kickers in person, college coaches are increasingly basing
scholarship offers on evaluations by Sailer. Sailer estimates he has
evaluated 65 kickers currently playing in NCAA Division I."
