More About Coach Jennifer

I have been coaching girls' basketball on and off for the last 25 years. I have a little bit of experience coaching high school, but the majority of my coaching experience has come from coaching middle school. I have coached in Utah and California, at both public and private schools. I have been a head coach for the majority of my coaching experience, as well as an assistant for a couple of years.

I have played basketball since the age of nine. After playing at Judge Memorial High School in Salt Lake City, I went on to play basketball at a small Christian college in Southern California. I earned the honor of having the most offensive rebounds for my school, as well as other awards such as Most Improved and Most Inspirational Athlete.

A typical session with me would include a lot of work on basketball fundamentals (dribbling, passing, shooting, etc.) If an athlete can't execute the fundamentals, he or she will never be successful. We would begin with a short warm-up (layups or something similar) and then move right into ball handling drills. I am also a firm believer in the importance of defense and rebounding, so defensive and rebounding techniques would be stressed as well. On offense, knowing how to move without the ball is crucial so I will teach V-cuts, backdoor cuts, setting screens, etc. I would end each session with a game-like situation so that the skills that have been learned can be transferred into a relevant situation.

Client Reviews

It is with great pleasure that I write about my daughter's experience with Coach Jenn Saderholm. I am very impressed with the skills that were taught and the drills they ran. My daughter has been coached by Coach Saderholm for several years and has grown in many ways under her guidance. I've always been impressed by Jenny's ability to communicate different basketball drills and techniques in simple language that players understood. Jenn was amazing when it comes to working with kids, an excellent basketball coach who truly cares about the whole student. My daughter has such a great time at practice and learned a great deal about the game, which has made a huge difference in my daughter's defensive skills, ball handling, and shooting. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a talented and dedicated coach who will encourage and further their child's passion for the sport.
Jenn has been my daughter's basketball coach for the last three years during middle school. She is very knowledgeable about basketball and understands the importance of skills and the emotional development of a player. She is a very patient and passionate coach.
Jenn is a terrific basketball coach. She taught my daughter how to play well and how to love it. Jenn is exceptional at connecting with the players so they all find their niche. I would certainly recommend Jenn to anyone who wants to hone their basketball skills.
