These coaches teach at top ranked spots and have great lesson fulfillment & student reviews.

Fueled by a lifelong love for basketball, I guide aspiring athletes to unlock their full potential. While I may be new to professional coaching, my passion is a constant. I aim to provide quality coaching for the sport.



Hi, I'm John Kelly, a Charlotte native & lifelong player/coach who grew up playing baseball in neighborhoods & sandlots - building natural "play reps" that carried into organized baseball. When kids have fun, they learn & play better. My baseball background: 1984 NC State Championship w/ Independence HS, multiple city/state All-Star titles, & 3-peat MSBL 45+ Fall Classic Championship (2017-2019). I offer high-energy, game-like training for players ages 8-14 focused on movement, fun, & max reps.
"Coach Kelly has a gift for connecting with young players. He teaches solid baseball fundamentals in a positive, encouraging environment. The drills are fun, the instruction is clear, and my son’s confidence improved after just a couple of sessions.
