About Coach Leezy

Hey, I’m Khalid "Coach Leezy" Ali, and I’m here to help you achieve your athletic and fitness goals. With over a decade of experience in sports and coaching, I specialize in speed and agility training as well as position-specific coaching for football and baseball. Whether you’re looking to improve your performance on the field or simply get in better shape, I’m dedicated to helping you unlock your full potential.

Right now, I’m the Varsity Wide Receiver Coach for Football and Head Varsity Baseball Coach at Hughes STEM High School here in Cincinnati. In these roles, I focus on developing athletes and helping them become the best version of themselves. I offer specialized training, from perfecting route running for wide receivers to improving hand-eye coordination for shortstops and infielders.

Before I became a coach, I played football at Central State University and went on to have a professional playing career across multiple countries and leagues. In 2017, I played quarterback for the Eger Heroes in Hungary’s top league (HFL) and also served as the Quarterback and Wide Receiver position coach, as well as the Offensive Coordinator for the U19 team. In 2018, I played QB, WR, DB, and Return Specialist for the L'Hospitalet Pioners in Barcelona, Spain, in the top league (LNFA Serie A), while also coaching the U19 QB/WR group and serving as Offensive Coordinator.

I continued my international playing career in 2019, playing QB for Carrancas FA in Brazil's second division (BFA ACCESO) in Petrolina, where I also coached the U19 team. Then, in 2022, I played for the Augsburg Raptors in Germany's Bayernliga, contributing as a player (QB, WR, DB, Return Specialist) while also coaching the U19 QB/WR positions and serving as Offensive Coordinator.

All these experiences have given me a deep understanding of football at various levels. I’ve had the privilege of mentoring athletes and coaching teams in multiple countries, and I bring that knowledge and passion for the game to my training programs. Whether you’re aiming to elevate your football or baseball performance, increase your speed and agility, or just get in better shape, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

Let’s work together and take your performance to new heights!
