Get the basics done right
While I only played one year of high-school basketball, I have been training (and playing) AAU basketball since 2021 and am a very passionate student of the game who's goal is to become a teacher for the sport I learned to love. I teach all positions, while I specialize in forwards and centers. I can guarantee a great workout and that you'll walk away from my sessions better than you came in.

About Me:
I played one year of high-school basketball my junior year before deciding that coaching was more so for me than playing was, I've been playing basketball since I was 10 years old and I've been coaching going on 4 years now.
I'm available to relocate somewhere closer to you if need be!!
How I can help you improve your game:
Any way possible, if you have a specific way you want to learn, awesome let's do it! But I expect 110% and I will push you to be better.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Starting out with some good plyometric stretches and workouts, then moving in to dribbling, shooting, and finishing warmups before starting our workout for the day then afterwards we'll finish with cardio.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I started playing at a Aau team in late 2021 and slowly became more of a coach to the younger players who would show up to train, and slowly but surely I became a full volunteer trainer for next 3 years and I love every minute of it
Best coach I ever had:
My coach, Coach Ford. He was like a second father to me, there wasn't a time a couldn't call him asking for favors or advice and he'd happily start a multiple hour conversation with me about what I had asked plus more!
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I'm a very very passionate teacher and a perfectionist, I expect all you've got and then some more with me. I have a pretty good knowledge of the game that's still growing and I love to help others get better not only as players, but as people as well.

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!
