Answer
JJ,

First of all listen to your coach. You need to run lots of sprints and concentrate on good running form. Also do form running drills to perfect your runnung technique. Getting faster only results from working really hard. Maybe there are training centers in you area like Velocity Sports Performance where you can go to work on you speed. My son attends one here in Pennsylvania and his speed has really improved in the last year.

Good luck,
Mark
