Very impressed with Coach Calvin! My son felt improvement after just the first session, and is looking forward to his next session. Coach Calvin is both professional and motivating, and really fine-tuned the session to meet my son's needs.

Definitely a knowledge coach! He really understands the rhythm of the game and can keep you on it. Great time, great workout, and a great teacher.

Coach Calvin (Cal) was a great help to my son! I recommend Calvin to anyone who is looking for a coach that is patient and consistent with his fundamentally detailed approach and expectation of the game...

I called coach Calvin to review my sons abilities and coach him prior to basketball tryouts. Coach Calvin did a great job at quickly evaluating my sons play and getting him ready for the tryouts. We will continue to work with Calvin, he's knowledgable and great with kids

Coach McCoy is excellent at evaluating players and teaching them how to play the game the right way! Not only did he teach them the physical skills but he worked on the mental toughness as well!! If you want to give your son/daughter a chance to play high school, college or Pro ball I would encourage you to seek Coach McCoy! He was a great player and he's a great coach/trainer
Calvin is a great coach, not only does he knows how to improve my sons game physically , he also understands what it takes to prepare for every practice and game mentally(mental toughness). He has a great personality, so my son felt comfortable right away and allowed Calvin to coach him up. I spoke to several coaches and they mentioned how Calvin is well respected as a player and coach!! I would recommend him to anyone and everyone in need of a qualified coach!!
