More About Coach James Ofei
14 years of experience as a professional youth basketball development coach. I’ve had the privilege to coach Elementary School, Middle School and High School. Most of my professional coaching experience was done abroad, with FIBA Mini Basketball, Nike Sports Camp and Mr.B Basketball Academy (China). I’m USA Basketball Licensed Youth Development Coach, Nike ISG Sports Camp Coaching Certified, SUNY Cortland Basketball Coaching Certified and America Red Cross Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED Certified. Multiple Best Coach Awards (U6, U8, U10, U12, U17). I equip players and basketball enthusiasts with a wide variety of skill-sets to help them reach their highest potential, while ensuring each training session is fun and memorable. I place higher value on integrity, progress, excellence, teamwork, personal accountability, fun, and performance.
I have had the honor on accomplishing some great feats with my amazing teammates and caoches over the last two decades. 1X National Streetball Champion - China. 2X SEU Basketball Champion - China. 2X NBL Champion - China. 1X HS Champion - Ghana. 4X MVP Awards.
All training sessions are dynamic, fun, fresh and challenging. My goal is to bring out the best in you and I will find different ways to do just that. I will give you my best and I will demand same from you. Training sessions is 60 minutes, every minute counts. If training starts at 5pm, you are late as of 4:50pm. We will not spend more than 12 minutes on a drill. We will cover passing, shooting, footwork and balance, rebounding, ball handling, screens, whole offense and whole defense over a series of sessions.

Efraim N. (Testimonial)
Coach James is doing a great job with my son Julian. We can definitely see growth and skill progression week to week. Julian has excelled in dribbling, ball handling, shooting and I.Q. We look forward to having Coach help Julian become the best he can be in the sport.
Julian N. (Testimonial)
James is a coach who makes sure you are on point and is on track at all times. My experience with him was excellent, he always does drills for everything you need, you name it. Shooting, passing, dribbling, defense, layups, and more. Once he sees your good spot, he will get you to grow in many other areas of basketball. For example, when I first got to James I wasn’t the best dribbler. Now that I have him, he helps me with dribbling and I am on point with it. James will help your child grow in any area that you need help or get better at. James is a wonderful coach, I would recommend him for your child all day.

I like that it’s challenging and you’re able to see where you need to improve as a basketball player. James is very intentional on challenging you and pushing you to become better. Always encouraging, always refreshing, always impactful. Highly recommend.
Dobson J. (Testimonial)
Coach James is one of the few true youth basketball coaches Ive met. His experience overseas and working with different age groups gives him the upper hand for training the youth. Three (3) things stands out about him; responsibility, dedication and excellence. Its been a pleasure to finally find a coach like him. You will be pleased to work with him, if you are serious about getting better and becoming your best!
