Cullen Donovan

I have traveled all across the US, throughout Europe and Asia and as far as New Zealand teaching the game of basketball over the past 10 years. Throughout my travels I have had the opportunity to play and coach youth basketball players from ages 3 up to semi professional teams. Currently, I'm a basketball skills trainer at Crosscourt in downtown LA.

I'm a professional basketball player, most recently playing FIBA 3x3 across the USA. Currently, I'm training for the 3x3 season and have a consistent training schedule that I work to develop my skill set weekly. I'm continually finding ways to improve my game, so I can share my knowledge and expertise with athletes I work with. Im an experienced youth coach with 9+ years of coaching and developing athletes. I've worked alongside some top skills trainers in the US and have coached internationally.

My ongoing training as a player and coach helps me be able to relate with athletes I work with. I have a drive to reach my playing goals, and I can provide an outlook on what it takes to meet their own goals within the game of basketball.

My main focus is development and that can entail the mental, physical and emotional progressions an athlete needs. I can help provide a foundation of skill sets so your athlete can enjoy their own basketball journey. Basketball has provided me with many blessings, and I'm looking forward to assisting them in any way I can!

Currently, preparing to play in overseas tournaments in Asia and compete in professional FIBA 3x3 leagues around the globe. I played 3 years Pro in Ireland and semi pro in the USA in the TBL. I played 4 years of college basketball at Rivier University.

My playing career post college spans 8 years and more pro playing opportunities coming soon.

My training sessions begin with a connecting conversation to find out what an athlete's goals are and how they have currently been playing. I then go into tailoring the session to build that skill that they are looking to develop. I also connect with the athlete to see how their body is feeling to make sure there aren't any injuries we need to be aware of and then we go through a dynamic workout. Most of my sessions began with a ball handling, form shooting or finishing series that they can take with them to practice on their own. Then we progress up from there, adding in different shots off the dribble, scoring from different angles or how to finish around the basket in a variety of ways. I ensure athletes are challenged by learning new skills and efficiently adding quality working reps to their training sessions.
