Duce Z.

Experience in training kids age 5-13 during my summers as a collegiate athlete with an organization called Bevwood Basketball in Beverly Hills under founder Bill Smith. I also specialize in high school level sports. I’ve had the luxury to coach/train both of my younger brothers through their high school years, 1 (Ibn Zaid #0) who is now the starting PG for Gavilan College in Northern California. While the other (Usama Zaid #0) crushed college basketball in Canada receiving P.O.Y. Award twice and is now a pro after signing his first contract this summer to play in Morocco.

I am a former Division 1 and Division 2 full scholarship student athlete. I attended and played basketball at both Weber State and California State Los Angeles. After transfering from Weber State to Cal State Los Angeles I lead my team to 2 straight play-off appearances earning 2 all-league awards, 1 all-conference award and 1 Team MVP award. After graduating college I decided I would give back to those who wanted to learn the specific fundamentals of basketball. I went a step further and attended the Personal Training Academy Global and recieved my certification in just 2 months.

I specialize in complete all-around basketball training. Some of the areas I focus on are fundamental shooting techniques, ball handling, decision making, defense, strength and conditioning, agility, endurance, and foot work.
