Coach Harold is awesome, connected very well with my son and worked hard on developing his skills

Coach Harold made my son feel so comfortable and taught him so much.

Coach Harold is amazing. We can already see our 10yo's confidence increase after two sessions with the coach. She is excited to continue more sessions with the coach. Bless his soul.

Coach Harold is a great coach and I would highly recommend him for your child.

Coach Harold is knowledgeable and kind. He’s an incredible coach. My daughter grew, not only in the fundamentals, but also in confidence and basketball IQ. She looked forward to every coaching session and brought home the exercises he gave her and practiced them diligently too. I’ve been very impressed not only by how well he knows the game, but by how well he knows what to do to improve the player. This was a beneficial step in my daughter’s development as an athlete and I highly recommend training with this talented and knowledgeable coach!

My daughter was very skeptical and nervous once she walked in the gym and seen it was only her working 1 on 1 with coach Coleman , she’s 7 so she didn’t really grasp the concept of private training . But once leeylah got out on the court with him she relaxed quickly with him. He was very patient with her, polite, and definitely knows what he is doing. By the end of the session my daughter is ready for more ! Thank you !

Very accommodating and willing to work with all ability levels.

Coach Harold does an excellent job. Great with the kids. Really nice guy. I highly recommend him.

My son learned important details during his first session. Coach Coleman presented him with a variety of drills that I felt will help him in the long run.

Excellent training!

Coach Harold was fantastic! He brought a lot of good, useful drills - along with his enthusiasm - and made the hour go fast. We’ll definitely be signing up for more sessions.
Thanks Coach Harold!

Coach Harold provides excellent one on one training. I’ve seen an improvement in my son after just two sessions. We would recommend Coach Harold to anyone looking to improve their game.

Coach Harold was fantastic! Our son enjoyed his first session and cannot wait for the next one! He is incredibly positive and personalized the time to meet our son's needs.

Coach Harold was excellent one-on one with my son who was 9 and had zero basketball skills or confidence. Coach was very patient and worked on the basics with him. I would recommend Harold.

We were in Columbus for a week visiting the grandparents, and my son wanted some extra coaching. Coach Harold was fabulous. My son had 5 different sessions, each different and challenging. He learned drills he's never seen before and got valuable tips and feedback.

Well planned session that offered hard work with a purpose. Coach Harold gave positive encouragement and a fast-paces environment

The first session with my eight-year-old son was great. He is somewhat shy, and Coach Harold was patient and knew exactly how to engage him. More importantly, in just one hour, Coach Harold helped my son work on a number of important skills and drills that have already carried over to our driveway one-on-one games. Coach Harold is highly recommended.

My daughter enjoyed her first session with Coach Harold. We will be continuing to train with him throughout the summer.

Coach works so well with our son!

Coach Harold has already helped my 11 year old son considerably! While we haven't made it to many sessions yet, we continue to use both the conditioning and handling warm up drills throughout this spring season. We look forward to getting to many more workouts with Coach Harold this summer. He is fantastic with players from 4th grade to college!

Coach Harold is not just a good coach, he is a great coach. I feel like I have grown as an athlete. If I hadn't have come to him beofre tryouts, I wouldn't even have made it passed day 1. I would love to have him coach me for awhile.

I highly recommend Coach Harold. My daughter's first session was a wonderful experience. She is looking forward to working with him again and using her new moves on the court this season!

He was great with my son. Started the session by learning about him and focused on making him comfortable. Started teaching fundamentals and stresses the importance of daily training activities to do. My son is very excited to begin next session.

Harold was an awesome coach. He worked hard with my 7 year old to hep him in all aspects of the game. He was very nice and made the game fun for him but at the same time kept the training disciplined and focused. I would recommend Harold to everyone. Bh is experience is amazing and the return on investment is weel worth it!

Coach is all business and great to work with. He has a complete routine that challenges his students and helps them fine tune the small details of their game.

Our first session with Coach Harold was a great experience. My daughter gained confidence and learned new things to improve her skills!

My daughter couldnt wait to tell her Dad about how much she learned in just one session, the improvement was awesome. Thank you coach Harold!

Coach Harold knows the game. I chose him because of his excellent reviews by athletes, parents, and his experience. He has definitely exceeded our expectations! My son can't wait to get in the gym with him each session and as a parent I know he is learning from talent! I appreciate the work ethic and individualize training that is offered. He is excited about mastering the game with Coach Harold's training.

Hello, I would highly recommend Harold Coleman at EAD sports as a personal trainer for basketball or any other sport or conditioning program. Harold worked with my 11 year old son before his basketball season, and I have noticed a huge improvement in his confidence and basketball performance this year! Harold is both informative and compassionate, and I feel that he would be a great addition to any athletes training program! RH, Reynoldsburg, Ohio.
Hi, My name is Mark Williams. My daughter Katrina Williams started working out with coach Harold Coleman about a year ago. We are very pleased with her progress as both an athlete and as a basketball player. Harold has increased her speed and quickness by using a variety of different workouts. Which by the way make the workouts more enjoyable. Katrina has also improved her vertical from 17 inches to 23 inches in less than a year. I highly recommend coach Coleman as an individual trainer for your son or daughter. He has a variety of updated workouts and treats your child with respect. Also I found the costs to be more bang for your buck compared to other trainers. Mark Williams
