More About Coach Larry
After playing Division I basketball in college, I played in several countries in Europe for five years and the NBA with the San Antonio Spurs and Washington Wizards for two years. I also played for the NBA D-League, where I was named an All-Star and All Defensive Player of the Year.
I played as a small forward. I pride myself on my defense and will teach quickness and defensive strategy. As my client, we will work on shooting mechanics, defense techniques, ball handling skills, free throws, foot work, passing, rebounding, and other aspects of the game. After a quick assessment of your skills, I can see where we should focus our training session, but I will certainly focus in on any area you would like to improve and train for excellent results. Because of the elite level I played at for many years, I am comfortable training all levels of basketball players and guarantee with dedication you can achieve great things as an athlete.

Jenny (CoachUp client)
My grandson was really nervous before his first session, but now he is loving it and can’t wait for his next session!!
Doug (CoachUp client)
Coach Larry has been amazing with my 11 year old son. I have been impressed with the way he breaks the game down to a level my son understands. Coach has taylored the sessions to improve on my son’s weaknesses while continuing to improve his strengths. As a parent, the best part has been watching the enjoyment my son has during the lessons and how much he practices between lessons because he wants to show coach how much he is improving. I would recommend coach Larry for any age or skill level, I feel fortunate to have him working with my son.
Cara (CoachUp client)
Coach Larry is amazing! My 12 year old son had his first lesson with Larry, and as we were walking out asked me how soon until his next lesson :) . He not only enjoyed it, but left with a clear direction on what skills he needed to practice and focus on. My son left with more confidence in his basketball skills than when he walked in. I highly recommend him!
Daryl (CoachUp client)
Just had our first session with Coach Larry. My son really took to Coach Larry's direction and the up tempo pace was perfect. I had high expectations coming in and Coach Larry more than exceeded them. If you're a parent looking for personalized coaching - Book Coach Larry without hesitation. Great guy, Great Coaching, Immediate results.

Larry has been phenomenal with my 11 year old son. He has the perfect coaching delivery. My son showed dramatic improvement in only the first four sessions. His club ball team noticed his improvement also. Larry is the ultimate coach! Awesome job Larry!!!!!
