More About Coach Elijah
I have over two years of experience with a leading training organization in Queens, NY, where I had the opportunity to learn from seasoned trainers with over a decade of expertise. Additionally, I served as an assistant coach for an AAU team, working with both 16U players and elementary-level basketball athletes. My experience also includes roles at Cap City North, assisting with 3-on-3 tournaments, and at Supreme Hoops Training, where I contributed to the development of young athletes.
I earned All-Tournament and All-Conference honors in 2022 and played four years of collegiate basketball at Paul Smith’s College, competing in the USCAA-D2 division. During my senior year in 2024, I served as team captain and was awarded the Most Valuable Player (MVP) title for my outstanding performance and leadership.
For older athletes, my training sessions are customized based on prior assessments and game film analysis to target their specific needs. For younger players, sessions typically begin with foundational ball-handling drills, such as figure-eights, pound dribbles, and zigzag dribbling. We then progress to form shooting, followed by shooting drills like the star drill, the Mikan drill, and techniques emphasizing B.E.E.F. (balance, elbow, eyes, and follow-through). I also incorporate shooting under fatigue to build endurance and precision. Passing drills, including bounce passes, chest passes, and passing on the move, are part of the regimen, and we conclude with defensive slide drills and conditioning line drills to enhance agility and stamina.
