Client Reviews

My son loved his first coaching session. He implemented the tips immediately when he got home and saw instant improvement.

Coach E is awesome! He is knowledgable, patient, and pushes my younger sister. Love working with him!

Coach EJ is a great coach!!!

Coach E was great. He was patient with my son, who is new to the sport. His instruction was clear and concise and both me and my son learned a lot from coach on the fundamentals like dribbling, shooting, passing, and overall basketball IQ. He was prompt and on time and even spent a few extra minutes. We will book again.

My sessions with Coach E were great. I was an experienced player trying to get back into the game, and he helped me do just that. I feel comfortable with my handles again, my shot feels better, footwork has improved, and I’m back in game shape. Coach E was always on time and provided positive feedback and constructive criticism after every workout. I will be purchasing another 5 sessions!

Excellent feedback and great coaching ability. My son learned alot and gained confidence in just his first session. Highly recommend

Very good drills!

Coach E was very encouraging. We only had 1 session but my son said that he speaks very well and worked with him on his ball control. He wishes to continue.

Coach Earl is professional and is prepared my son enjoyed his work out and feels it will help him become better. I recommend Coach Earl.

Coach Earl exceeded our expectations. We didn't know what to expect and had only booked one session to test it out. My son truly enjoyed his session. He left so encouraged & asked me if I could book him more sessions with Coach Earl, which we definitely will be booking more sessions for him. Coach Earl is very knowledgeable and has a great way of teaching kids to where they can understand and grow in the game. I would highly recommend him. It's worth the investment for your child. You won't be disappointed.

Coach Earl is absolutely fabulous. My 14-year-old son is a high-level player and we wanted him to get in a strenuous workout while on vacation. Earl really challenged him with some great training routines, showing him some finer aspects of the game. If we lived here, we would train with Earl all the time. I recommend him for all players.

My son has been working with him for a month and is very happy with his sessions.

Coach Earl was awesome. My son finished his first session and I was impressed by Coach Earl's attention to detail. I would definitely recommend him to any player looking to improve their game. I will be scheduling more sessions. Tarrik

My son was very happy after his first session we definitely recommended him . 10/10

Excellent coach, from only the first session my child felt great and improved his skills and confidence.

Great coach who prioritizes fundamentals.

My son had his first basketball lesson with Coach Earl last weekend and he was beyond happy with his skills, the drills he had him run, his pointers and overall interaction. Coach Earl was on time and devoted the entire hour to his one on one lesson. We booked one session initially and as soon as we left we booked 10 more! My son is 16 and only recently developed a passion for basketball. I feel like if we continue with these lessons, he’ll have fair shot at trying out for his high school team! We highly recommend Coach Earl!

We just booked even more sessions with Coach Earl! My son loves his lessons, is learning and getting a great workout! His skills have improved immensely and his love for the game has heightened!

Coach Earl was great!

Coach Earl was very professional. He worked on specific issues that my son needed help on. My 14yo enjoyed his session and left very motivated! We will definitely be getting more sessions in with Coach Earl!, I highly recommend him.

Coach Earl is very good With kids. He’s very motivating. He’s very accommodating. He’s always accommodated us even when it gets hard because our grandson shares weekends with each of his parents. At first, our
Grandson was a bit worried about having one on one sessions with a coach. When he first met Earl on their first session. , they clicked right from
The beginning. On
The second session Tristan , express to us “ I like him
, because he pushes me and motivates me.”
It made us feel very good and confident we chose the best coach for him. We are very pleased , happy and satisfied with coach Earl. Now. Tristan , looks forward to his session. During the holidays we skipped a few Saturdays and Tristan was looking forward on starting again. Thank you so much Earl ! For your excellent job coaching Tristan. Your awesome. We also , want to add he’s very respectful and polite. We started with three sessions. Added 5 then 3. That’s how great the sessions our going. Thank you , Lourdes

Coach Earl was patient and very detailed with my son who is just now getting into basketball. He was on time and very professional. If you have a child who has experience or no experience coach Earl will guide your kid in the right direction. My son loved his first session.

Earl did a great job. My son was very happy with his coaching and we purchased three more sessions.

It was a great session, my son learned a lot from you and is excited to train with you again!

Coach Earl has been great for my son! He clearly knows a ton about basketball and can offer a lot of great training techniques and drills. But what we appreciate the most is his patience and how supportive he is.

Coach Earl was excellent. He was flexible with times and location, arrived on time and gave a lot of effort. My son improved his game from the first lesson. Looking forward to booking the next session.

Coach Earl’s first lesson with my son was great. He went through the fundamentals and made it an enjoyable experience. I highly recommend Coach Earl to parents who want to introduce the game of basketball to their kids.

Coach Earl is a great coach. Our son needs improvement in all areas and only after one session, he has learned so much. Coach Earl is professional and very kind. He knows his stuff.....highly recommend!

Coach Earl was very professional. He showed up on time and ready to coach. He was flexible with training options due to the fact that most indoor gyms were closed down. We are looking forward to more sessions.

Coach Earl did a great job with James. He worked him hard and also showed him some new moves and skills that I think will help him. We were very impressed with his knowledge and ability to teach. I look forward to having him work with my son.

Great at noticing details and helping to refine. My son was very pleased with the helpful tips and workout. Highly recommend.

Coach Earl was great! My daughter said that she thoroughly enjoyed her lesson. I watched and was amazed at the the ball handling and shooting drills/exercises that he had her doing! In just one hour she got so much more than we expected out of the lesson. She is looking forward to continuing her training with Earl. I believe that with regular lessons with Coach Earl she is going to be the best player she can be! We are very excited to see the progression.

Coach Earl was an outstanding coach to my daughter and son while we were on vacation in Florida. Both kids learned a lot from him and wished they had more time to train with him. Coach Earl responded immediately to my messages and everything was arranged ahead of time and couldn't be more happier with our decision to have him train our children. Highly recommend Coach Earl.

Steven really enjoyed his time with Coach Earl and learned some new techniques in the first hour with him. Thanks.

Best coach out there!

Coach Earl is very patient with my 13 year old son. He gives him the encouragement to keep trying. My son really enjoyed his practice with coach. I definitely recommend Coach Earl!

Coach Earl is an amazing coach! The exact mentor you would want for your athlete! After just one session, our son is improving and is so excited about his game! He can't wait until his next session with Earl!

Great Coach! My boys really enjoyed some great tips! Thanks

So impressed with Coach Earl - he was quickly able to read the skill level of my son in the first session and focused him on the right things - fundamentals - and also provided actionable feedback after the lesson. My son was thrilled with the lesson and we are signing up for a package now. Coach Earl is also very responsive and accommodating - we are so glad to have found him!

Thank you Coach Earl!!! AJ really his session with you! Between teaching him new practice skills with dribbling, shooting and just being so positive and supportive! You were amazing!!!! Thank you!!!!

I have been looking for a coach for my 15 year old for quite a while. My son has played competitive basketball for 11 years and is a solid player, but he's been lacking that mentor that can help him take it to the next level. We had our first session with Coach Earl last weekend and it was great. First of all Coach Earl was very professional. Emails/messages were answered quickly. He was on time and prepared for the training session. Earl was able to assess my sons level quickly and roll right in to drills that would improve on his weaknesses. Earl had numerous drills ready to go and filled the hour easily. Despite the hard work, my son enjoyed the session and is looking forward to his next. After the session, I received a written assessment within 24 hours with some good feedback for my son. I would absolutely recommend Coach Earl.

Coach Earl was very encouraging. He worked on the basics with the boys but with a flair. The boys look forward to more sessions.

I couldn't be MORE happier with the way Coach Earl worked with my son. Coach took him through drills and pushed him exactly where he needed to be pushed to get him thinking about the next level. If you're wondering if working with Coach Earl is worth the time and/or money... have NO worries! Book a session and see for yourself! I've already booked follow-up sessions for my son. It's great to find local coaching talent that knows what it takes to get your child to the next level. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

We really enjoyed our session with Coach Earl. He is patient, understanding and motivating. He focused on the fundamental skills Evan will need to become a better player. We will definitely be scheduling more sessions!

Earl was a really good coach. Since I'm beginning basketball and my troubles is dribbling. He has taught me good techniques how to dribble correctly. The number one thing I liked about him is that he was patience with me. 100℅ recommend!

Hi Coach Earl,
The session today helped a lot. You have helped me improve my dribbling and shooting and will use the tips you gave me at home to help improve my game.
Thank you,
Tommy

Coach Earl was early to our session, easy to work with in scheduling, so patient with our son, and awesome in his skills building! We’ve booked him again because our son cannot stop talking about how awesome it was. Definitely recommend him to everyone! Book him soon because I plan to tell every friend about how awesome he is!

After my son had his first session with Coach Earl I knew right away that this was a great fit! He was patient and knowledgeable yet he still challenged my 15 yr old son to step up his ball handling and shooting skills. My son was asking when he could work with Coach Earl again within 5 minutes after practice ended. Already booked more sessions! Highly recommend.

After one session, my son already showed more confidence at practice and the next travel ball tournament—earning a starting spot. My son immediately felt at ease with Coach Earl. He could quickly assess areas that my son needed to work on with fast effective results. My son is looking forward to more sessions and eager to work hard because seeing improvement after one session is a big motivation.

Great first session. Coach is very attentive and informative. He picked out both good and bad habits and has already informed us on how to correct the bad right away. We will definitely schedule more training sessions and would highly recommend Coach Earl.

Coach Earl is very patient and knowledgeable. We will definitely continue training with him.

Coach Nurse does a great job! He gives my son positive feedback, which has made a big difference in his confidence on the court. My son looks forward to his sessions with Coach Nurse and we will be scheduling more sessions. Thank you for giving your time on the weekends to help kids improve their basketball game - it is much appreciated!

My 16 year old son really enjoyed the training with Earl. It was a fast moving training, he covered ball handling and shooting and really seemed to zero in on the things my son needed to work inn quickly, we will definitely book another session.

Coach Earl was awesome! He was patient and encouraging. He had tons of drills that will be helpful in making my son a better player. You can't beat one on one Coaching. We will definitely be booking with him again.

I was very impressed with the level of detail in my son's first session with coach Earl, he was amazing! The session was focused and intense. My son wants to get better and he knows he can do this with Coach Earl's training. We will be booking additional sessions. Recommend 100%.

Coach Earl was amazing! He helped the confidence come back to my son with just one session. We will definitely be having more sessions with Coach Earl! Recommend 100%. Don't hesitate to book him. Rick.

At the end of his first session with Coach Earl, my son's self-confidence was renewed and now he can't wait for his next session. From the start of the session it was evident that Coach Earl was extremely knowledgeable about the skills necessary for success and how to model and practice them. The session was intense and focused, yet enjoyable and engaging. We will definitely be booking additional sessions with Coach Earl.

Great coach Chris is learning a lot from the training provided! Thank you.

Coach Earl is amazing! My son Raymond absolutely loved practicing with him.

Only had one lesson and all I can say is I am happy I have 4 more. Great coach, a lot of experience, and a lot of knowledge. Looking forward to the rest!

Was very pleased with the training my son received. The drills and moves he had him do were different than previous trainers. I am looking forward to more sessions with Coach Earl and continued improvement on the court. Thank you Coach.

Coach Earl was great! After one session my son said he felt his confidence returning. He is looking forward to his future sessions. Great job Coach!!!!

Coach Earl is an amazing Coach! He is integrating drills to improve our daughter and he is not afraid to push her beyond her comfort level. This is exactly what she needs to improve her overall skills in basketball. We are grateful to have found Coach Earl and to have him training our daughter. We look forward to every session. Thank you Coach!

Coach Earl was a great coach for my son Ethan and grandson Tyler. I have booked several more lessons for the boys with Coach Earl. I'm so glad my son showed me this site to help them improve their skills for competitive basketball. Thanks again Coach Earl

My son, Timmy, loved Coach Earl! He has had 2 sessions with him so far and is looking forward to more! He feels very comfortable with Coach Earl and said he really likes the way he teaches! He really helped him with his ball handling and shooting!

Coach Earl did a fantastic job with my son. He was patient and very pleasant. They worked on things that he struggled with and he encouraged him and walked him through each task. He showed him ways to perfect his shooting and drills to work on his ball handling. I will definitely be brining my son back and I would absolutely refer him to anyone looking for coaching services.

Coach Earl was a wonderful coach. My daughter has had tremendous improvement in her shooting and dribbling . Will definitely use him once a week.

Being new to CoachUp, we were a bit tentative about receiving private lessons to improve my son’s basketball skills but after just one session with Coach Earl, all reservations are gone.
Coach Earl’s sessions are not intimidating and fun for my son and results-oriented for me. In the short amount of time Coach Earl has been with my son, he has given him insight into specific items he needs to correct. Items that can only be seen by a trained professional with one-on-one attention. Drills are starting to build upon each other as they progress in sessions and my son even has “homework” items as well. My son has completely enjoyed the sessions he has received so far and we are looking forward to the next ones!

I have only had a few sessions and I feel like a different player, and even my basketball team mates have noticed. I'm looking forward to more sessions with Coach Earl. If anyone is looking to improve, definitely check him out.

Coach Earl did an amazing job he helped my improve upon my position as a center and helped me get dribbling. He improved my shots and my confidence to drive in. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to get serious and expand their game.

My son has had 5 training sessions with Coach Earl and we think he is awesome! My son's skills have remarkably improved from Coach Earl's training. Coach Earl has given him so much confidence and we are thankful parents. We look forward to many more training sessions from this Coach.

Coach Earl was great, he helped build confidence in my son. It was fun and he learned a lot. Coach Earl gave him drills to do at home.

My 16 year old son started with Coach Earl today and he can't wait to go back. We wanted someone honest who would push him. I can tell now that we will use Coach Earl many more times!
