Get to know Coach Leah
About Me:
High school and college basketball player before pursuing coaching as a profession.
How I can help you improve your game:
I want to understand your goals and how you're currently utilized within your team. Mindset plays a crucial role in sports, so we’ll also place a strong emphasis on mental approach. My goal is for you to leave every session feeling accomplished and confident that you’ve learned something new!
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Training is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Each session will be completely customized to focus on your specific areas of improvement. Lasting one hour, sessions will include skill development followed by decision-making drills designed to help you apply those skills in simulated game situations.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I bring a decade of basketball coaching experience across various levels, including middle and high school junior varsity (JV) and varsity teams, as well as numerous basketball camps.
Best coach I ever had:
I’ve had the privilege of being mentored by some incredible leaders, but my favorite coach has always been my middle school coach, Jed Davis. Coach Jed not only challenged me to strive for greatness but also emphasized the importance of staying true to myself. He consistently pushed me to be the best version of myself, both on and off the court, and his passion for coaching was truly inspiring.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
Coaches have a profound impact on the lives of young athletes. I became a coach because I was inspired by the great mentors I had in the past. My passion lies in teaching basketball in a way that bridges the gap between training and live gameplay. I emphasize not only skill development but also decision-making and creativity, aiming to simulate real-game scenarios as much as possible

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!
