Youth players
Working with kidsWith kids I make sure to go over the basics and help create a fun workout working on fundamentals and skills. I incorporate drills that will make them want to keep learning while enjoying the game.
Working with teenagersDepending on skill level and goals, I train teenagers by giving them great mental tips and tricks on how to be effective in games and how to play confidently. We focus on drills to enhance skills and as I teach them, I provide why each drill is important and effective.
