More About Coach Lemar
I enjoy working with players of all ages and levels, but I especially enjoy the challenge of coaching teenagers, because with them I can make the biggest difference in their game. My specialties include footwork, post moves, inside-pivot moves, playing off screens, the pick-and-roll, eliminating unnecessary movement, and developing mental toughness. I focus on teaching when and how to use a move based on the defender’s position and balance.
Looking forward to working with you

A Typically One on One day with me will look something like this:
Warm Up
3-Cone Drill
Defensive Close Outs
L-Drill
Shooting
25 Mid-Range Jumpers Left
25 Mid-Range Jumpers Middle
25 Mid-Range Jumpers Right
10 Three Pointers Left
10 Three Pointers Middle
10 Three Pointers Middle
25 Free Throws
Step Back Three Pointer
Cross-Over to Mid-Range Floater
Baseline Jumper in Traffic
Baseline Floater
All shooting working will be done working on exploding into the shot and making sure correct form is being used and that the player is using a quick release and following their shot.
Ball Handling
Chair Drill High Low
Behind the Back 6-Cone Drill
Between the Legs 6-Cone Drill
Power Dribble Sitting
Power Dribble Standing
Baseline Dribbling
Between the Legs 50 Reps
All ball handling will be done with high energy and making sure that the proper ball handing form is being executed. Eyes will be up on every drill to simulate trying to find the open teammate or being ready to attack the rim.
That is a simple example of a lower level work out but as the sessions continue and the player starts to learn the basics we start to do more advanced drills. Also every session will be created from nothing to accommodate the athlete I’m training.

Coach Lamar is awesome!!! He not only instructs, he builds character and self confidence! He keeps the kids moving and progressing! Would definitely recommend and use Coach Lamar again.
Marcelle (CoachUp client)
Coach G was fantastic with my son's first lesson last night! I am confident he will take his skills to a whole new level, and we are looking forward to weekly sessions!
Kevin (CoachUp client)
Our first session was great. We did one dribbling drill where I had to rely more on my instincts and that was challenging as well as constructive. Looking forward to working with him more.
Kristi (CoachUp client)
Coach Lemar has done a great job with my son. Lemar has outstanding drills and he works my son hard but also offers lots of encouragement too. My son has definitely shown improvement in his ball handling and his overall skills. His confidence is improving too thanks to Coach Lemar's instruction and encouragement.
Eric (CoachUp client)
My son has improved dramatically from working hard for an hour to two hours. Lemar has transformed him into better player. My son improved on his weaknesses and still had time to fine tune his stregths.

We brought three girls from Nebraska to Lemar and Tiffany's camp. The girls and us parents (as coaches) LOVED the camp as we all learned some great drills to work on. The girls made some new friends also. There was intensity with respect and teamwork among all the girls. Ball handling, defensive drills were the girl's favorite! The girls said Coach G does and AWESOME job taking his time and explaining the drills to them. Watching as a parent we love the 1 on 1 attention Coach G gives to each and every athlete. He is so knowledgeable and talented and great with inspiring the girls to do their best! Lemar has always gone ABOVE and BEYOND our expectations.
