More About Coach Ansley
I am currently a Point Guard College instructor, teaching athletes ranging from ages 12 to 22 the subtleties of the game of basketball that the average player never takes the time to learn. I have individually trained athletes from ages 12 to 16 and have assisted with the Larry Ricker Basketball Camp for ages 8 to 14, helping athletes master skill and technique for a successful basketball career. I have held a basketball education weekend camp for Hampton High School's girls basketball team.
I recently wrapped up my career as a NCAA Division 2 basketball player for Mars Hill University in the South Atlantic Conference. Honors I have received while playing for Mars Hill are South Atlantic Conference Scholar Athlete of the Year (two-time winner), All-South Atlantic Conference First Team (2016), All-South Atlantic Conference Second Team (2014), North Carolina Collegiate Sports Information Association College Division All-State Team, the SAC's best free throw percentage (89.7% in 2014 and 88.7% in 2016), the SAC's 3rd best points per game (17.8 in 2014) and 2nd best points per game (15.8 in 2016), the SAC's best three point percentage as a sophomore (40%), and the SAC's third best three point percentage (35.4% in 2014 and 38% in 2016).
Every session of mine is tailored to the need of the athlete. After I identify both the athlete's needed and desired areas of growth, I will tailor each session accordingly, adapting each session to the need of the athlete. Typically my session will start out with intense ball handling drills. Then, we will move to form shooting, perfecting the athlete’s shooting technique. We will go straight into spot shooting from all areas of the court, working on quickening the athlete’s shot to better prepare for game-like speed. Then, we will work on finishing moves around the rim and taking contact in order to finish. We will work on shots off the dribble, always triggered toward game speed. We will end with foul shots so that the athlete is hitting the foul shots while tired, as in a game.

Client Reviews
Brandy (CoachUp client)
Coach Ansley is absolutely amazing with Samantha. She is so patient and caring. She cares for Samantha and wants the best for her in learning the game of basketball. We as a family have grown to love Ansley. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.
Jason (CoachUp client)
Coach Ansley was great. She was very energetic and positive. She is a good instructor with a wealth of basketball knowledge. Best of all, she has an excellent way of transferring her knowledge to the student. I really liked the notes at the end that she gives you to review and continue to practice at home. We will be booking more sessions with her!

Coach Bud Hazelwood, Hampton High School Girls' Head Basketball Coach (Testimonial)
Ansley is a fantastic motivator. Her knowledge of the game and attention to detail and fundamentals are the best. She spent a weekend with my team, and they keep asking when she is coming back. Ansley is going to be an awesome coach, and I would definitely want her working with my kids.
