More About Coach Christopher

Has coached atheles of all ages. Has also assisted college basketball coaches in coaching their athletes, and has helped high school student-athletes take their game to the next level in the sport of basketball. In sessions Coach Todd has exposed what athletes' strengths and weaknesses were. Then has assisted those same athletes in developing their strengths so well that those strengths became eye openers to coaches and scouts on the next level. He has also assisted in strengthening their weakness so that it is no longer a detriment to them nor their teams' goals. Coach Christopher Todd specializes in developing defensive skills, as well as shooting, and a player’s basketball I.Q. Covering the range of the whole game, everything from how to involve your teammates to the post game.

In a typical session with Coach Todd we will expose what the athlete’s strengths and weaknesses are. Then we will focus on developing the strengths so well that it will become an eye opener to coaches and/or scouts on the next level. We will also focus on strengthening the weaknesses so that they are no longer detrimental to the athlete's and his or her team goals.

Client Reviews

Coach Christopher was great in our first session with my 9 year old nephew. He was very invested in the process, asking a lot of questions about my nephew's basketball experience even before we met and he put all that into developing the first session. He motivated my nephew to continuing practicing hard like he has been doing and focused on specific skills training to help my nephew improve. My nephew really liked Coach Christopher and is looking forward to the 2nd session next week.

I was very impressed with Coach Christopher -- he was tough but helpful in a way that helped me recognize shortcomings in my shooting form. I plan on meeting with him again anyway, but he gave me plenty to work on on my own.

Knowledgeable and definitely pushed me past my limits. Will be booking another sessions as soon as possible. Worth every minute!

Great coach would recomend him to anyone.

Christopher iso so great with my 10 year old daughter! In a few sessions I see so much improvement

My son is enjoying his sessions with coach Christopher. My son is learning a lot from him.

Very dedicated, gives constructive feedback and a clear plan on drills that my son needs to work in. Excellent follow up skills, I’d highly recommend.

Great coach - able to structure the lesson plans according to the student's skills. Patient and understanding.

Great coach know what he talking about. Would get him again.energy is great and never rushed.

Chris was patient, observing and communicated very well with my daughter. She learned alot in one day with Coach Chris. He was very motivating and lets you know the type of training you will need based on your long term goals. I would recommend coach Chris to anyone.

Coach sorry it’s been too long

Coach Christopher is phenomenal. What he is doing for my eleven year old son goes beyond the basketball court and it comes at such a critical time of my son's physical and emotional development. Thank you, Chris!

Great coach, gets the student motivated and his teaching skills are great. Clear, precise instructions!!

Coach Chris was excellent and professional. He evaluated my daughter and they put her through a series of drills. He is the best coach that we have had We will book more sessions

Christopher is a wonderful coach. He quickly assessed what level my kids were playing at and designed a coaching session to meet them right where they are. Right from the start they had a blast, got a bunch better, and were eager for more.

Great coach

Christopher is amazing! My 6 year old son learned so much! highly recommend!

My son is a beginner - started attending group training in October, and I wanted someone to just show him some basics. He enjoys playing basketball and session with Coach Christopher made him enjoy it even more! After a few hiccups, we had a session yesterday - and we are looking forward to next one! The coach is very patient, I liked his approach towards my son. Highly recommended.

Coach Todd already has had 2 sessions with my son Daniel and everything they work on helps him improve. His left hand and finishing techinques from those sessions are paying dividends and although my son says Coach Todd is tough he feels he gets better everytime he sees him. I would recommend him to beginners intermediate and advanced players trying to get their play to the next level.

Coach Christopher was AWESOME! My son learned more in four sessions than he learned in four months. He did a great job assessing my son's skills and helping him address weaknesses. He communicates well and my son really enjoyed the sessions.

Coach Christopher is an excellent coach. He established trust with my son in the first few minutes and provided instruction that was tuned to son's needs in the very first session. We have decided to sign up for more sessions with Coach Christopher.

Coach Todd pushed me and showed me all my mistakes and how to fix them precisely. I️ love how coach Todd shows he cares by always wanting to know how his player is doing. Recommend to anyone looking for a coach that will push them to their highest potential

My son loved working with Coach Chris. He explained so much of the game that other coaches never did. He made my son feel very comfortable and helped boost his confidence for his upcoming tryouts. He's looking forward to the next session.

Coach Christopher was great for my 13-year old son who is already a fairly good player looking to take his game to the next level. Christopher is very talented at the game, is a great communicator, and structures his session well, all of which adds up to great coaching.

Greatest coach I have ever had.

Coach Christopher did an amazing job motivating my son, building a stong rapport with him, and improving his skills.

I highly recommend Coach T, he helped me realize my weaknesses and approve upon them. In addition he'll present you with new ideas and principals that will improve your game.

Coach Todd is a great coach.
He was immediately able to relate to my son similar experiences when going through high school tryouts. Coach has a very positive and practical approach to his workouts. My son now knows there are "no excuses" in success.

Coach Christopher is exactly the coach my son was looking for. He gave my son and his two friends skills to work on especially tailored to each of them. Coach was punctual and prepared. The boys are thrilled to be working with him.

Coach Chris was of great help.. my son shooting form improved and I saw a difference in his last game, he scored 10pts!!! Usually he averages 5pts.. I would recommend Coach Chris to any point guard that is looking for improvements!!

This is our first time using CoachUP and I have to say that we were very pleased with the overall experience. CoachUp it self did a great job following up with us and keeping us in contact with our coach.

Coach Chris was very professional from the beginning. You can tell he took his job seriously. He was constantly reaching out to me and my son with appointments and things he can work on to improve his game. Coach Chris was very flexible with the scheduling which I really appreciated. My son learned a lot from him.

Thank you for your time and attention.

amazing. I thought i needed one thing, but coach Christopher blew my mind

Coach C was great with my nephew. I saw improvements in his fundamentals almost right away. but more importantly he seemed to be having fun and was really engaged in what the coach was preaching. We look forward to working with Coach Chris in the future.

He is a wonderful coach who will expose your weaknesses and tell you what to work on to improve. He is very clear and has a great overall understanding of the game and was able to share that with me.

Coach Christopher was a great coach! After my first session with him i already felt an improvement in my game! his training and techniques he has taught me is like unlike anything i have experienced. he is very professional with his work and very caring for all of his students he takes his job very seriously. i recommend anyone looking for a coach to contact Coach Christopher because he is truly a great Coach!

I was extremely satisfied with the job Coach Todd did with my son. In just one session I was able to see a significant improvement with his game. On the ride home my son expressed how happy he was with his session and wish he had worked with Coach Todd all summer instead of going to basketball camp. He felt he learned so much more in just one day than he did in his two weeks at camp. I would recommend Coach Todd with no hesitations, he is truly amazing with his skills. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Isaiah can't wait to see you again .

Example: Coach Christopher was a great coach! After one session I already feel like a whole new athlete. His training and techniques are like none I’ve had before - definitely top notch. I would recommend Coach Christopher to anyone.

We've only had one session but I am very impressed with how he has coached our daughter. Coach Todd was very professional and demonstrated that he has not only knowledge and experience in basketball coaching but also a great passion for it. He pushed my daughter when she needed pushing and praised her when she deserved it. I believe he will be able to take her to her highest potential and make her a better basketball player and a better overall athlete.

Coach Christopher is an excellent coach. He is very knowledgeable, extremely passionate, and patient. My son told me that he wasn't sure he wanted a coach, but after his session with Coach Christopher, he was excited and looking forward to his next meeting with him. I would truly and honestly recommend Coach Christopher to anyone who wants to improve (or learn) the game.

Coach Christopher is an exceptional coach who is able to communicate with young people at every level. He not only teaches my nephew the physical aspects of the game but what it takes mentally to do well. He is a very accomplished coach.

Hey Chris O had the best game of his life. He scored 10 points, 5 assists and great defense
Exceptional defender with above average B-ball IQ and athletic ability. Good offensive arsenal...Not much on trash talk...Plays with intensity, and pride. Experienced, hard worker who has the ability to dictate style of the of the game.
