More About Coach Kyle

I am currently a varsity assistant coach at Ben Davis High School in Indianapolis. I have coached boys' basketball at the high school level for six years, spending two years at Franklin Central High School, one year at Franklin Community High School, and the last three years at Ben Davis. 2015 is my fifth year coaching at the club level as the head coach of Men of the Family, a 17 & Under College Exposure program based in Fishers, Indiana, helping to put 94% of our players over that time in position to compete at the collegiate level. I have trained both boys and girls from ages 8-18, most of which are males ages 14-18.

As a high school player at Bettendorf High School in Bettendorf, IA, I was a two-year varsity letterman and was part of a Class 4A State Runner-up team as a junior in 2007. As a senior, we lost only four games, all four of which were at the hands of the two teams that competed for the 4A state championship that year.

I typically start workouts with a form shooting routine, starting near the rim and progressing out to a shooting warm-up. Next, we are ready to go full speed and move to ball handling, inlcuding both dribbling and passing. The length and difficulty of this segment depends on the age, skill level, and projected position of the athlete. This part of the session is when we really want to get a sweat going and set the pace for the remainder of the workout. After ballhandling, we will spend time on offensive scoring moves dependent on the player (dribble moves to score, wing moves, post moves, etc.). The final 20-30 minutes of the work out is spent on shooting and free throws. Again, the types of shots we work are dependent upon the player's ability, age, and projected position.

Kyle was great! Encouraging and helped build my son's confidence after an injury. He was great with breaking down instruction and helping my son with basic and advanced techniques. Great coach!

Coach Kyle has helped our son immensely. When we first booked with Kyle our main goal was for our son to learn the correct shooting form & technique. Coach has him going through sessions that have corrected his poor shooting habits & now he is knocking down shots from all over the court with greater confidence & accuracy. Kyle stresses the positive mental aspects of the game which, in turn, has greatly improved our son's overall performance . We highly recommend training with Coach Kyle.

Coach Kyle has been a solid influence on my son. We started earlier in the summer and have progressed nicely. Coach Kyle pushes my son to work hard in a positive manner. My son is looking forward to working with Coach Kyle in the future!! I would recommend Coach Kyle to any player... whether raw talent or accomplished.

Our first session went well, I think my son has a lot basketball skills! Played all thru grade school & Third year playing AAU ,I know he has weak points. Kyle pointed them out to us at end of session at that point I know he was real! Lance's age 15 he was real excited, he said he though he got alot out of his first session.

Awesome coach! Best money I ever spent. Not only are Jeremy's skills vastly improved but his self confidence is rising with each session. Would highly recommend Coach Kyle to anyone looking for a coach who is truly concerned with the betterment of each athlete.

Kyle was a great coach! He worked hard during each lesson to make my son a better player. He was very responsive on scheduling and I can notice a big improvement in my son's game. Thanks Kyle....

When I was looking for a basketball trainer for my son, Coach Ballard was at the top of my list. He took the time to assess my son's strengths and weaknesses, and he has customized workouts to address these areas. He stresses developing players to help them reach their potential. His sessions are rigorous, challenging and fun. He is a hands-on instructor and is on the court sweating and working out just as hard as my son. Coach is great at giving insights into the fundamentals that can make a difference. I am pleased that my son's skills are improving as a direct result of the work he is putting in with Coach. As a parent, I appreciate that Coach is a great combination of toughness - making sure my son understands there are no shortcuts and that hard works pays off - and encouragement. To my son, Coach is much more than a trainer. He is a teacher, mentor and role model whose lessons on and off the court are helping him realize why being a good student-athlete matters. I know my son will continue to grow and develop as a basketball player, and I am confident that Coach Ballard will do all he can to help get him there.
