More About Coach David
I started playing basketball when I was 6 years old. I played in high school, and won a state championship. I was the MVP of the state tournament. After high school, I played college ball at Bowling Green State University under Coach Jim Larranaga and then for Dan Dakich. I have been playing basketball professionally for the past 13 years throughout Europe. Most recently I was playing in Switzerland. I was with the same team for the past 6 years. I have also played in France, Germany, and Austria. My career has included 5 championships, 7 cup titles, and MVP titles in Austria and Switzerland.
I am willing to work with players of all ages and levels. Your sessions will be built on your skill level and your willingness to be great. Because I have experience in all levels of the game, I have the knowledge to help you become the best player you can be. I want to teach the game and help develop your skills to achieve your goals in your basketball career.
Player of the year, Player of the decade in Cincinnati and MVP of the state tournament.
All conference in college.
Total of 12 championships in Europe with multiple mvp's and all-league.
The sessions will be customized for the athlete. What he or she needs to improve the most. It will cover skills, but also footwork, agility and strength to become the player you want to be.

Jovan (CoachUp client)
Coach David was very professional, honest, and down to earth. It can be a little intimidating for a 13 year old to be coached by someone with such an impressive resume. Dave made my son feel at ease immediately. My son got the opportunity to get a little taste of some of the drills that the “big shots” practice in order to become the best. Not only was this experience top-notch, it was motivational as well as inspiring! I would definitely recommend checking Coach David out if you are looking for the best!

Showing up for our first session I was surprised to find out we had already met coach David at a basketball camp and had already had a great experience. He knows what he is doing, pushes hard and is extremely experienced. I would highly recommend him and his program to EVERYONE. And the facilities are amazing!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Angela (CoachUp client)
Coach Dave challenged my son and also gave him positive feedback. The workout was tough, but my son appreciated and respected Coach's methods, and realized this would take him to the next level with his game. My son is 14 and has been playing for several years, but the drills and workout Coach Dave put him through were different and my son felt like he was really learning something new.
Stephon (CoachUp client)
Awesome experience‼️ Very good training techniques. Definitely will be coming back.
Samuel (CoachUp client)
He really knows what he is doing and gets you to push yourself.The facility is also really nice as well.
Laura (CoachUp client)
My 12 year old son really enjoyed working with Coach Dave. We will definitely be signing up for more lessons. The facility is awesome. I have already recommended him to other parents on my sons basketball team.
David (CoachUp client)
Great coach. Excellent facilities. Can't wait to go back
Christoph (CoachUp client)
Coach Dave managed to push the limit of my son, who improved a lot after only 3 sessions. Dave's huge private basketball court (indoor) is an additional plus.
Kaila (CoachUp client)
The workout Coach Dave put me through has already helped me to become a better player. I'm excited to see how much improvement I will make this summer! Coach Dave is great!
Luis (CoachUp client)
The workout with Dave was much more than expected. Although Dave himself said he's not reinventing the wheel, his added twist made simple drills challenging. Dave focuses on the player doing the work for the betterment of his game and correcting or tweaking body mechanics. I can appreciate his approach to preparing an athlete to be game ready and explaining how each exercise is used in game situations. Schedule permitting, my son is Dave's new client.
Robert (CoachUp client)
After our son's first session with Coach David, he has already shown improvement. It's so great that he gave him things he can do at home to work on, as well. Our son said he learned a lot in the hour he was with him and he is definitely looking forward to having more sessions. Coach David gives instruction well, he is professional, and his down to earth personality makes it easy for our son to listen and learn from him so that he can improve his game in all areas. All of Coach David's experience and knowledge is a tremendous benefit and we would highly recommend him to anyone!
Christa (CoachUp client)
Coach David is a phenomenal instructor. He introduced unique techniques to my son I never witnessed before. His training techniques are second to none. After his training session, my son was very excited to work on his new tools developed from David's training. I will recommend David to anyone. He is Awesome!

Excellent session - time well spent. We came in a bit apprehensive. We didn't know what to expect. Coach David is a good coach. He was professional and positive. He really gave my son an outstanding work out, and tools he could use on his own. We will be back, and I strongly recommend him.
Roy (CoachUp client)
Today was my son's first bball lesson and of all the choices I feel very lucky to have picked David.
He was very flexible and we were able to book a practice the very next day.
David's facility is top notch, I did not know my son would have such an excellent one on one practice with a player of David' caliber in the perfect setting.
I honestly did not know what to expect after joining coachup and I was blown away.
We will be back often to practice with David. My son's goal is to make the team at Marist next year and with David's help I know he can get it done.
Excellent coach !
Would highly recommend!

Great 1st lesson, looking forward to the next! I like the routine and drills that were accomplished in an hour. My son really enjoyed what was covered, it was an eye opening 60min for him!
David (CoachUp client)
Excellent session with an excellent coach! Coach Dave knows what he is doing and got right to work with my son. Very supportive and encouraging. He gave my son a great workout with lots of useful drills to work on at home. We are so glad we had the opportunity to work with him!

Coach David was awesome with my son Jack. 1st session he was able to quickly analyze his shooting, agility, & handling among several other areas and then had him perform several drills geared to these areas which have already achieved improvements. He broke down Jack's shot, made some small tweaks and had him quickly shooting with much better technique and results. Received great feedback on what Jack needs to work on & then excellent coaching and drills to address these areas. A great start! Mike W.

Dave knows basketball and loves the game. That really showed when he trained my son. He had him work on everything from ball handling to form shooting. Dave is the real deal and I can't wait to see my son's confidence and game get elevated under Dave's watch.
