More About Coach Anthony
First off I was blessed with playing opportunities after graduating College, where I played basketball professionally around the world (Germany, Mexico, Canada, U.S. Harlem Globetrotter/Washington General Tour) from 2009-2015. After I finished playing I immediately started training youth 1on1 with CoachUp and Coaching High School basketball in Ohio. Since I was a Freshman in College (2005) I have worked summer camps and been able to connect with younger Athletes. Even when I played professionally in Germany for the majority of my career I helped coach youth teams for the organizations I played for. I have a good sense of training techniques which makes it easy for me to evaluate athletes and help them improve. My current Jobs are surrounded by Students, Athletes, & Sports. I currently work as a Physical Education Teacher at an Elementary School. Also, I have coached as a Varsity High School Assistant Basketball coach in Toledo, OH from 2015-2019. The certifications I have received are CPR, Fundamentals of Coaching, and more through the National Federation of High School Sports.

My client can expect a positive environment in which he/she will flourish to maximum potential based on my basketball principles. I like to focus more on the weaknesses of players to develop confidence. First off introduction for training, light warm up, then straight to drills and focus points. Warmup, Fundamentals/Footwork, Ball Handling, Shooting. Im constantly reminding the athletes I train, what the drill and focus is during each drill/exercise.

Justin (CoachUp client)
I am incredibly impressed with the basketball training my son has received from Coach Anthony. After just three sessions, I have already noticed a significant improvement in his skills and confidence on the court. Coach Anthony’s coaching style is engaging and effective. I highly recommend Coach Anthony to any parent looking to help their child develop their basketball abilities!
Michael (CoachUp client)
Coach Anthony is very knowledgeable and professional. In the first session, he already pointed out most areas where my son needs to strengthen. I will let my son continue to work with him.
Steve (CoachUp client)
Great session with Coach Anthony. After 1 session my son was more confident in shooting the ball against taller defenders. He can’t wait until his next session.

Coach Anthony trained my 13 year old daughter. He was very professional, friendly but most importantly paid attention to detail. "It was one of my hardest workouts," from my daughter.
Kenneth (CoachUp client)
My son took to Coach Anthony immediately, and worked hard for an hour straight in his first lesson, working up a sweat. He loved the experience and I could tell a much needed fire was lit! I hope he sticks with it and reaches his goal which is to play this year!

Coach Anthony has done a great job working with my son. He comes out of each session sweating and a smile on his face. All you can ask for. Just recently my son made his school's travel basketball team! The work he did with Coach was definitely a huge contributor this offseason. I will continue to use him for all of my boys as a supplement to their basketball teams. We have really enjoyed it so far.

Coach Anthony is a great coach. My son is looking better already after one session. It’s easy to see that Coach Anthony is good at what he does. If you or your child needs help. Book him now. Worth every penny from what I could see just in the first session. He is very engaged, firm but helpful and encouraging. My son was impressed as well
