More About Coach Elwyn

I am more than a coach; I am mentor, motivator, and role model. My focus is to inspire lives using basketball. I first started coaching in Texas as a volunteer for Hays and Pflugerville Youth Sports Associations. Shortly after these opportunities, I returned to Chicago to network with Coach Paris from CoachUp. This collaboration has led to several contracts with park districts, intense group and individual training sessions, along with being top ranked on CoachUp.com for basketball fitness training.I am now coaching a traveling AAU team with Swish Basketball third and forth grade. I also assist with shooting camps as well as skills camps throughout the nation with Breakthrough Basketball. The first one I did was a shooting camp in lake Barrington Illinois I have also been working with a current CoachUp coach Paris Davis for the past two years.

He was great.

Coach Ellen was very professional, he was pleasant to speak with I don't know much about basketball so my oldest son came along to watch the training he stated this is who u need to train Chase he was tough but good. Very knowledgeable especially with the fundamental I m sure he will be a good coach and mentor for my son
I will be scheduling long term training with him

My daughter was nervous for her first session however after working with Coach Elwyn she is very excited about basketball season again and looks forward to her next training
