Client Reviews

I am so impressed with how many skills and drills Coach Dana was able to fit into an hour. He also gave my son exercises to do at home. Highly recommended!

Coach Dana held an excellent first session with my son. Immediately following the session my son commented on how much he enjoyed the session and how he wished Coach Dana was his team's coach. Coming from my son, that speaks volumes. In only one session my son learned techniques he had not learned in three years of playing on a team. I would highly recommend Coach Dana.

Great coaching!

Coach Dana worked so well with our son. Starting with good fundamentals along with pushing him to be better. He is positive and cares about teaching kids basketball. We will continue training with him.

Great coaching Coach Dana!! Nathan was very excited and ready for the next session. He felt confident in what the coach taught him.

Coach Long is awesome! He really knows how to get your athlete to dig down deep and put out maximum effort. My son's confidence level was boosted significantly in just one session. Definitely looking forward to future sessions with Coach Long!!

After one session my daughter is very excited to learn more & have more sessions. He seems like a great coach!!

My grandson came home after the first session with coach Dana and was very pumped. His whole attitude has changed and is very optimistic about what Coach Dana can teach him. He is very excited for his next session.

Coach Dana is amazing. My 8 year old daughter loved him. She was always eager to go work with him. Just after the first session with him she was showing improvement and confidence. He knows what he's doing and he truly cares. He is great and I would definitely recommend him for a coach.

Two words: Top Shelf! Clicked with Dana immediately. Great system, attitude & professionalism. Very positive experience!

Coach Dana is very knowledgeable and his enthusiasm and intensity on the court is contagious! Jackson is confident these coaching sessions will help him make the team this year!

Thank you coach Dana for the work you are doing with Dylan! I am very happy with Dylan's enthusiasm and progress since he started training with coach Dana. I am impressed with how coach Dana knows exactly what Dylan should be working on and recognized his strengths and weaknesses on the first session. Coach Dana has been improving Dylan's game and confidence. We are very excited we found coach Dana and highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve themselves in basketball. Thanks again Dana and keep up the great work you do!!!

Junior is really enjoying the instruction. I think we are beginning to see a little confidence. If we can continue to develop that aspect the rest will come. Thanks for everything Coach Long. I think we have the makings of a great relationship between you and Junior.
