Get to know Coach Jacob

About Me:

I was a starting guard for team USA in the Maccabiah Games, and I won 2 gold medals. I started playing AAU as a third grader on a fifth grade team. I played all three 3 years of middle school and four years of high school.

How I can help you improve your game:

I am an excellent shooter, and I will give pointers on how to improve their form. I will help the athletes become better dribblers by doing drills such as 2 ball dribbling. As a guard and being one of the smaller players on the court, I learned how to hold my own in the paint, and I will help each athlete in the post, and how to use their body to their strength. I will help with conditioning so that during a real game, they do not get tired, and fatigue will not get in their way.

What a typical training session looks like with me:

To begin every training session, there will be stretching and warm-up drills. After that depending on the type of session, I will run some shooting, dribbling, passing, or defending drill. There will be a small load of conditioning, and when the athlete is tired there will be small rest breaks.

Career summary and accomplishments:

I was an assistant coach for a recreational basketball league in Coral Springs, and we won the championship. I have personally trained a few teenagers trying to elevate their game. I am also a certified personal trainer, and have trained clients in the gym.

Best coach I ever had:

Lorenzo Williams was the best coach I ever had. He shared his knowledge and trained me like a professional player. He has NBA experience, and taught me about hard-work, competition, team play, and much more.

What athletes and parents should know about me:

Basketball has been my biggest passion my life, and I am very dedicated to the game. I am very friendly and professional. If the athletes or parents have a question, they can feel free to reach out to me voicing their concerns during a training session. I am patient, and want nothing the best for the athletes to grow not just as a player, but as a person.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!
