At DrillmasterHoopsllc our goal is to provide every individual with the proper fundamentals and skills of a true basketball player.

Brooklyn Nets Pioneer Award. February 2017 for my long time commitment and hard work towards my community. I have played Coached and trained a lot of high level athletes which gives me a first hand look/ insight on how to develop a player on and off the court.

I specialize in player development and In-game situation enhancement, with that being said training sessions are based on experience and skill set of the athlete. Once the athlete's skill level has been determined, I will design sessions consisting of skill development drills and workouts tailor made for the athlete.

The purpose of EVERY session is for the athlete to become better than they were before that session. How do we do that? Each session will teach and push the athlete to think, work hard, concentrate and excel. No two athletes are the same, and that is the mindset with which I approach my athletes. Each workout is detailed to make the athlete better in the game. It’s about building confidence and being able to take what is taught and use in the game.

Great Coach!

We had an excellent session today with Coach Lenair. Thanks so much.

Coach Lenair was great with my 13 year old son. He was very professional and knowledgeable. My son learned a lot in just one hour. Thank you!

Coach Lenair is the real deal. He is professional, knowledgeable and knows how to connect with my son. Would highly recommend him for those parents looking for a coach that is focused on your child mental and physical.

After one session, it’s clear that he’s an excellent coach who knows how to help you improve. Can’t wait to keep working with him.

Fantastic Coaching!!! Coach Lenair understands the importance of a rock solid foundation and consistency. He connected with my son and met him where he’s at in his game. He was able to plant the seeds of self awareness around better form, focus and function. Couldn’t recommend him more!

Great knowledge and communicator. Highly recommend!!!

Amazing work. Very knowledgeable of the game and patient. Booked another session immediately after. Highly recommend

Lenair is very knowledgeable and the training program really translated to my game on the court. Also able to adjust if something is difficult to execute at first. Highly recommend!

Fantastic, Coach Lanair is exactly what we were looking for.

Although our son plays on a team, he doesn’t get the individual attention there that would really help him up his game. There are too many kids and the coaches just don’t have time.

Then we found Coach Lanair. After one session, he was able to size up our son's strengths and weaknesses and formulate a plan to elevate his game and give him confidence on the court. We’re looking forward to seeing his progress.

Under Coach Lanair, we know our son will gain an incredibly strong foundation of skills and knowledge to move forward.

…he’s also fun to talk to.

So professional and fun! Great tips! Highly recommend!!

This is the first time we’ve worked with a trainer. Lenair has proven to be knowledgeable and patient. I feel confident that my daughter will achieve her goals plus more as she continues to work with coach lenair.

I am learning a lot during my sessions with coach. He is very detailed with the drills and explains to you how and why your doing the drill and how to transition it to your game.

My first session with coach was helpful, fun, and I feel like I know exactly what I need to work on to get better!

According to my son, his first session with Coach Lenair was very testing (and efficient), which is exactly what I was looking for: a coach that will make the player put in the work they need to reach a certain level. In conclusion, Lenair is an outstanding coach, and I highly recommend him to anyone who wishes to step up their game.

Had a great session with Coach Lenair. Would recommend him highly to others. He took a look at my current skills and started with drills that could help me improve.

Coach Lenair is fantastic! He works my son hard and he is challenged the entire workout! ! If you are interested in skill development that produces results; I would highly recommend Coach Lenair

My experience with Coach Lenair was really positive. He has a very detailed and methodical approach to his training which I liked a lot. If's he teaching you something, he's not just going to explain it and then show you but help you understand the concept deeply so that your physical results pick up faster. His training style allows for athletes to apply his teachings immediately when practicing on your own or applying it in a game and they are of the type where it would impact your game noticably. He also seemed like a cool friendly guy.

Great session with my son, coach really starts with assessing the needs of the athlete then making the necessary corrections and practice drills to do off-time. Had our second session today and we see the progression already.

Our first session was great. My son (11) confidently said to me on our way home “I’m definitely going to get better with him as my coach.”

Highly recommend any new comer to work out with him ... it’s always a lesson taught and improvement shown ..... The guy really know his stuff and will push to get better within your means ‼️💯

Awesome experience!!!! My son had His first session with Coach Lenair on Saturday. He’s new to Connecticut from New York and comes with great experience and a wonderful perspective. Just what we were hoping for. He really took his time to talk with my son and I before getting started and went above and beyond during the session. He’s very knowledgeable and you can instantly tell his love of the game and desire to help kids be better athletes. My son said he really enjoyed his session with Coach Lenair and his teaching strategy. We are both looking forward to the next session!

Gotta give credit where its due, this man is who is responsible for me even picking up the rock and learning the game of basketball. Started right before my first year of high school and aint looked back since. Without him i probably wouldn't have had the opportunity to play college ball. Its only up from here, time to apply pressure.
