Youth basketball coach building skills, strength, confidence & love for the game
Youth basketball coach building skills, strength, confidence & love for the game
With nearly 30 years of coaching experience and a lifetime of playing basketball from age 7 through high school, I specialize in developing young athletes during the most important years of their growth. My training focuses on building strong fundamentals, improving strength and conditioning, and helping players become faster, more coordinated, and more confident on the court. I believe performance and confidence are built through preparation. My sessions are structured, positive, and age-appropriate, combining skill development with athletic training in a way that is engaging and effective. While competition and winning matter, my priority is long-term development—teaching athletes how to train properly, understand the game, and enjoy the process of getting better. Parents choose me because I create a supportive environment where young athletes feel encouraged, challenged, and proud of their progress. Each session is tailored to the athlete’s ability, goals, and learning style, helping players build confidence, work ethic, and a genuine love for basketball that carries well beyond the court. If you’re looking for a coach who develops confident, well-prepared athletes while keeping the game fun and meaningful, I’d love to work with your child.

Get to know Coach Diana
About Me:
I have transitioned out of the corporate world to do something I love! I’m married to a wonderful, basketball loving guy, Tom and we have two miniature dachshunds, Owen and Archie. I’m originally from Seattle (University of Washington alum) and lived in New Jersey for many years— but Florida is home now and forever! I love to travel and paddle board. I enjoy Pilates and pickleball and believe nutrition is just as important as activity.
How I can help you improve your game:
Do you want to make more baskets? Be a point guard? Run faster? Jump higher? Become a starter? Join a travel team? I can help you achieve these goals through structured sessions getting you mentally and physically ready.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Depending on where you are with knowledge of the game and your current skill set, we’ll work on ball handling, shooting, footwork, speed and rebounding — just to name a few!
Career summary and accomplishments:
After many years in a corporate career alongside coaching, I’ve recently made a meaningful career change to focus more fully on what I truly love—coaching and developing young athletes. Basketball has been a lifelong part of my life, both as a player from age 7 through high school and as a coach for nearly 30 years at the youth, travel, and high school levels. This shift allows me to dedicate more time, energy, and intention to helping players develop the right way.
Best coach I ever had:
My 5th grade coach, Mr. Marshall. His positive yet firm style made an impression on me and I utilize things he taught me to this day.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I am often told I am the most positive and outgoing person people know. I’m high energy and take pride in seeing kids improve and excel in their sport. My schedule is flexible and I am happy to coach siblings together.

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 find yourself needing to cancel or adjust your booking within 24 hours of your purchase, just let us know. We'll provide a refund - no questions asked. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're here to support your learning journey.
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!
