Private Lessons & Coaches in Kent, WA

I’m Wayne Mendezona, Head Men’s Basketball Coach at Corban University and founder of Quick Handle Basketball. I’ve spent over 30+ years developing athletes and have trained more than 50,000 players—from youth to college and professional levels. I specialize in ball handling, scoring, and game performance—helping athletes build confidence, decision-making, and real in-game results. My training is not just drills—it’s about developing complete players who can perform under pressure, think the game, and separate themselves from the competition. I don’t train average. I train athletes who are serious about growth, discipline, and competing at a higher level. If that’s you, let’s get to work.

"My son said Coach Mendo was far and away the most effective coach he's ever worked with! His knowledge, tools, and willingness to share wisdom are incredible. I've never seen my son so impressed by a coach or heard him so enthusiastic about what he learned in a session. Very grateful!

From street drills to stadium strategy, I bring 17 years of soccer coaching, blending elite technical training, tactical insight, and player-centered development. I pair rigorous skill-building with an encouraging, approachable style to foster confidence, creativity, and consistent growth.

For over 35 years, I've honed my basketball coaching skills, fostering player growth and a deep love for the game. I focus on fundamentals and strategy. My passion is helping students reach their full potential on the court.

A seasoned artist sculpting harmonies for over two decades. My musical odyssey began with six years of formal piano training, evolving into a singing journey that kicked off at the tender age of seven within the welcoming walls of my childhood church. At 21, I entered the world of recording, becoming an internationally distributed recording artist. With a wealth of studio recordings and live performances, I've fine-tuned the art of creating musical magic. Join me in unraveling the symphony of sounds that have defined my melodious sojourn!
