Get to know Coach Matthew
About Me:
Ive been coaching and training the sport of basketball for 13 years, i played in high school but suffered injuries that shortened my playing career. Still finding ways to stay involved with the sport i love and continue to grow in all ways that i can with basketball and the players that i work with.
How I can help you improve your game:
i love seeing progression and working toward a goal. Settings small and big goals and attacking them with a plan. I can shoot with either hand so teaching anyone is easily relatable.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
high energy, and lots of progression through drills and adding to each progression. But im also not afraid to go back to fundamental and basic things that helped us get to where we are. Got to keep all your tools sharp even the ones we haven’t picked up in a long time.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I wouldn’t say i have any physical accomplishments you can see or look up, but i take pride in any athlete i work with and help them grow and improve as a player and a human being.
Best coach I ever had:
I would say the best coach ive ever had was the actual game of basketball. Learning through playing and training or how they say trial by fire has to me the best way to see what works and what doesnt and as well see where i need the improvement for the next time i pick up the ball.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I bring lots of energy and lots of way to communicate and relate to athletes. I’m big on footwork and the small details that can pile up and lead to success. I’m very goal oriented and always wanted to get better in every way i can and i hope i have athletes who want the same thing.

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!
