Client Reviews

Coach Kris was an experienced, and considerate coach. Along with what you choose to work on, he always adds a helpful element of conditioning. Highly recommend!

Coach Kris was excellent! He was just what my daughter needed. Went through all the basics and gave a good workout and lots of tips in an encouraging way. Highly recommend this coach!

Kris did a good job in the session gave him plenty of skill drills he can work on in between sessions. good facility.

Coach Kris was awesome, he did a great job with my son and I look forward to having my son work with him over the summer. Money well spent.

Coach Kris was great. My son was looking for a few pointers on ball handling and Kris delivered. Corrected his form and he is already more confident and shooting better. Smarter not harder.

My daughter had a great experience with Coach Kris at her first session. After warming up, he had her run through ball handling and shooting drills, focusing on fundamentals. She had fun, worked hard and learned how to improve her game with encouragement from coach. Coach Kris gave her a couple of pointers to work on and reinforced them throughout training. She left the session motivated to continue to improve and is looking forward to training with Coach Kris again.

My son had his first session with coach Kris and he had a great time. Kris was very knowledgable and didn't waste any time getting to know my son Henry and where he needed work. He jumped right in and started working on developing my son's shot. He had some fun drills and an awesome machine to automatically feed the ball back to my son after shooting. It also kept track of his shooting stats, which he loved. We are looking forward to booking more sessions with coach Kris in the future.

My daughters experience with Coach Kris was excellent! She enjoyed the lesson. He encouraged her to work hard and tought her some valuable drills and techniques that will help her to grow and develop as a player.

We had our first session with Coach Kris a few weeks ago. I loved the way Coach Kris worked with my son. When we got to his lesson Coach jumped right in with Kris (my son) and focused on him for the whole hour, giving him slight adjustments to his shot to work on. He talked right to my son and made him work. You can tell Coach loves the game and enjoys teaching others. Looking forward to the next session.

Coach Kris has been amazing with my 11 year old. The drills are tailored to my son's specific needs and he has made great strides from just a couple lessons. Kris is patient and fun but gives a tough workout at the same time. We look forward to continue working with Kris.

After one session with Coach Kris I could see a difference in my son's play and confidence. He looks foward to his workout sessions and would highly recommend Coach Kris!

Coach Kris did an excellent job with my 6th grader in his first session. He kept the workout fast paced and intense while also making it enjoyable for my son. The drills were exactly what my son needed to increase his comfort level and confidence. We are looking forward to continuing with Coach Kris to help my son bring his game to the next level.

Coach Kris has done such an amazing job with my 8 year old son. My son was ready to be challenged with getting to the next level. After a few sessions with Kris his skill (and excitement for basketball) has increased significantly. We're going to keep working with Kris on a regular basis!

Coach Kris did a great job at the first session my son had with him. He put him through different ball handling and foot work drills. A full 60 min workout with the right amount of encouragement, pointers on fixing some moves and ended with a fun shooting drill. At the end of it my son came out with lot more confidence in himself and he is eagerly looking forward to the next session.

Session with Coach Kris was great. My son liked it a lot and he wants to continue coaching with Kris. We will be booking some additional sessions.
My son is more confidant player now. He looks forward to basketball practice sessions and trying to work on skills he is learning. Earlier I had to motivate him to practice, but now he takes initiative and wants to practice on his own.

Coach Kris was excellent. Worked very well with my son and we look forward to more sessions. Definitely a step forward in the right direction and I would recommend Coach Kris to anyone.

What a great experience. After one workout with Kris I could see a difference in my sons play. All positive. Sam looks forward to working out with coach Kris again, so do I. Thanks Coach!

My son was very enthusiastic after his training session with Kris. He learned some new things and is looking forward to working with him again.
