There’s passion. There’s love. There’s basketball.
There’s passion. There’s love. There’s basketball.
Basketball has always been a passion of mine. Growing up, I studied the game almost more than I studied for school. I was a High School athlete for four years. Also, I have been a drummer for 16 years. Both sports and music require immense amounts of training. Now, my experience with coaching and teaching myself, amongst others, can help you! Inspiration can be hard to find everyday. Thankfully, you found me.

About Me:
4 Year Varsity HS Football Player-Prarieland Academic All-Conference
4 Year College Marching Band
How I can help you improve your game:
Motivating them to become the best player and person they can be
What a typical training session looks like with me:
Everyone is different. I tend to lean more towards a player’s weakness and cater to their needs more than what I want to do in a training session. Scoring is a must in every period. Whether it’s ranged shooting or finishing around the rim, someone can always use my drills to improve their offense. I love to implement concepts to challenge a player’s ability to read the defense. A lot of basketball relies on a player’s ability to play the game. Another piece to the session might just be doing off ball work, pushing a player to get in better shape.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Camanche HS 2021-Current I have coached under many different head coaches. I have developed my expertise in teaching and communicating over the last few seasons. I open up the gym for players and help with shooting, handling, rebounding, weight training, anything for them.
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I ever had was a junior high baseball coach named Phil Johnson. With a plethora of knowledge and a unique view on the game, he inspired me to do things on the field I wasn’t sure I was capable of. He pushed me to do better but also was there to console me when I struggled.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I go by JR. I’ve coached HS boys for the last 4 years. Most of the boys look up to me as a mentor and role model. My goal is support. Support their game. Support their lives. And Support them!

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!
