Akshay
Awesome coach! Helped us become a better basketball player and more importantly a better man. He stands for equality, justice and wellness for all. He really inspired me this year and he makes me want to become a coach when I grow up. He likes to have fun but also knows when to work hard. He is a top 2 coach in Beckman High school and he’s not number 2. I would really recommend this sincere nice man to be a head coach.

Great coaching! True definition of what it means to be a great coach that builds up his team.
Beginner training plan
Your first lessonTeach them ball handling skills and technique on how to shoot the basketball and be consistent with their shot
Lesson 11+We will combine everything all in one from previous lessons just to overall get you a better basketball player.
Lesson 4-10We will shoot in these lessons and make sure to learn how to either shoot with your arms or legs. It’s very important when you’re tired to shoot with arms so you don’t lose that energy in your legs.

How it works
Lesson 2-3We will be going into different ball handling moves and when to use them during different situations. We will work on your shooting form so you’ll know how to shoot the basketball. Details matter to me.
Advanced training plan
Your first lessonGet to know the player and learn his strength and weaknesses. From there I’ll come up with a game plan on what we need to do to get this player better
Lesson 11+From here we will incorporate everything all at once. It’s important for the player to able to do multiple things at once. We will also work on his mental game too
Lesson 4-10Lessons 4-10 will be mostly shooting with some ball handling in there too. We will break down the players form and make sure his feet are in the right spot and hands are on the right spot on the ball. I’ll get the player more consistent and comfortable with his shot and technique.
Lesson 2-3Lessons 2 and 3 will all be about ball handling and making sure their eye hand coordination is good too. We will go over different moves in different situations.
What you need to bringThey should bring a basketball and shoes.
What I can bringI’ll have grip for their shoes, I’ll bring cones and other equipment

About your basketball coach

With over a decade of basketball instruction, I blend skill-building with strategic play. My focus is fostering a love for the game alongside technique. I help young to high school kids develop their skills to their abilities. I make sure we do in game situations so when they are in the game they know what to do. I enjoy meeting new athletes who are determined to learn and grow. I love enjoying the process from where they start and see where they end up. Join me to elevate your basketball journey!
