Coach Berk
Youth martial arts coach and mentor
- 🇹🇷 Bornova, İzmir, Türkiye
- Bornova St. Joseph's Athletic Club
- Since 1984
- English
I've coached martial arts at Bornova St. Joseph's Athletic Club since 1984. Most of my players were between 12 and 15, and a lot of them turned into friends for life.
Winning was never the point, though I won't pretend I didn't enjoy it. I learn every name in the first week.
I'm proud of everyone I got to work with.

What gifts mean to Coach Berk: I'll put any gifts toward a small fund so no child misses a match because of money.
