Improve your skills and build your confidence!
I have been training and coaching young hoopers for the past 5 years. After earning a Master’s degree in Sport Psychology at Florida State University, I built an AAU program that I currently own and direct. My goal is to teach young players the physical and mental side of the game. I am a Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC) and am passionate about sharing my expertise with young, motivated athletes. If none of the times I have listed below work for you, reach out to me and we can find another time!

Get to know Coach jack
About Me:
Jack played 4 years of high school basketball in Washington state as a point guard. After high school he attended Florida State University where he was a member of the practice squad for the women's team.
How I can help you improve your game:
I help athletes clarify their goals and together we collaborate on a plan to achieve them. I balance a supportive and encouraging environment with a challenging and high intensity work outs. Sessions vary depending on player goals, but typically consist of game relevant, competition oriented drills and games.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Its difficult to describe a typical session, as I tailor each session to the athlete's skill level and goals. I usually begin by getting to know the athlete and understanding their current role on the team and their desired role. We discuss some options and goals for our work. Generally speaking, we spend significant time putting up shots at game speed from game relevant locations and learning how to score at all 3 levels.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I have conducted personal and small group skills trainings for around 5 years, working with both boys and girls aged 10-18. I have coached at the AAU level, both boys and girls ages 10-18 as well.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I have ever played for was my 7th grade AAU coach. He challenged us everyday, both as a team and as individuals. But most importantly, he instilled in us an unshakeable confidence and a love for the game!
What athletes and parents should know about me:
Parents and players should know that I am an organized, committed trainer who expects players to show up on time and give 100% effort. I prioritize the mental side of the game just as much as the physical and strive to instill confidence in the players I train.

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!
