Jim Fannin’s Summary

Educator, author, consultant, speaker, life strategist and mental coach. I teach techniques and methods that enable you to change your life for the better. In 1974 I created the S.C.O.R.E.® Performance System. It is a collection of thought management tools that will empower you to reach high daily standards and ultimately tap into your greatness.

My love for tennis led to a full scholarship at East Tennessee State University, where I became the Ohio Valley Conference champion. After earning a degree in marketing and psychology, I played on the men's pro tennis tour in Europe. I left the tour and began coaching the best of the best. At one point I trained seven tennis players in the world's Top 10.

Based on a groundbreaking study in 1974 (conducted with PhDs from the Ohio State University), I created the S.C.O.R.E® Performance System. It was initially designed to maximize learning in young children. With my guidance over 200,000 children and hundreds of coaches were trained in tennis using the S.C.O.R.E. System. In addition, over 2000 junior high and high school students were trained in a S.C.O.R.E.® based program called Goal Reachers. Hundreds of parents requested the System for their own lives thus a cottage industry was born.

Fast-forward 34 years-over three decades of new learning and new insights. Today the S.C.O.R.E.® System has given thousands of clients a proven blueprint for realizing extraordinary human potential and overcoming the fears and worries that hold us all back. I have tailored S.C.O.R.E.® for amateur and professional athletes in eight sports and men and women entrepreneurs, executives, managers, administrators and sales personnel from 37 industries.

Because of the S.C.O.R.E.® System, I am not just another life coach. I am about amazing results. Results that make positive change in people's lives. In fact, I have advised my clients on the biggest decisions of their lives.

Jim Fannin’s Specialties:

More than a life coach, I am a "change your life" coach. My patented thought management system swiftly empowers people to be the best they can be without inconvenience. Period!
