Dreams do come true. I can attest to that. Thank you all for your interest in working with me, Coach Antonio. It is truly an honor and privilege to aid your young superstar in their sports journey. I'm truly grateful for the opportunity to be connected to the game I fell in love with at 6 years old and provide training in all areas of the game. Trainings are open to young males and females of all ages. Focusing on the game in its entirety, I'm sure the results will build confidence and unlock untapped potential.

How I can help you improve your game:
My ability to teach the game and demonstrate is definitely key to my success. I am able to teach the fundamentals as well as the advance footwork that is in today's game of basketball. I really like to focus on the small things that athletes today would necessarily think are important but vital to individual and team success. From parachutes to ladders, weight vest and abundance and knowlegde I am equipped and motivated to ensure your athlete excels.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
All trainings are based on childs level of skill. The first training session is always an evaluation to see what areas will be the primary focus. All training sessions are 2 hours and include conditioning and stretching. We will also assess nutrition and other areas of concern to best fit your athlete's goals and aspirations.
Career summary and accomplishments:
- Founder of Team Manifest, formerly known as The Humble Gentz in 2017. - Former Assistant Head Coach at Word of God Christian Academy in Raleigh, NC. - Current Head Coach at Youngsville Academy in Youngsville, NC. - Led Youngsville Academy to 10 wins (1st Year Head Coach) after winning 2 games under previous leadership
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was a great man named Donald Hayes. Growing up in a single parent home, he was always there to make sure I had a positive male figure in my life. He provided me with transportation, meals and taught me the definition of accountablity. He would critique but also build me up in the process. His ability to coach was phenomonal but his ability to teach was unmatched.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I'm a father of 2 beautiful children. I'm also a 3-time heart attack survivor. I always loved mentoring the youth and loved the game of basketball since I picked up the ball. Coaching and training has allowed me access to the best of both worlds. I get so much fulfillment from teaching and watching youth athletes learn and apply what they've learned.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.
Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
