More About Coach Marcus
I coached kids in AAU tournaments, semi pro and trained several athletes who later went on to play overseas. I will work with kids up to pro athletes.
Hall of Fame at Fairleigh Dickinson University Div. 1 while holding scoring title and assist records. Ranked 3rd in the NCAA Division 1 scoring as a sophmore. Drafted by Utah Jazz in 1984. Played 15 years in Europe England, Portugal, Israel, France and Italy. Try outs with Utah Jazz signed for 1 year, Washington, New Jersey, Detroit (Bad boy era) and Lakers. Looking to work with players who want to go to the next level.
Warm up and do some lay ups and take some shots so i can see what level they are on. Then create a plan on things to work on such as basic fundamentals. Mind, body, balance, and form. Plan on what we are trying to improve and track it for success.

Client Reviews
Jennifer (CoachUp client)
Coach Marcus helped my son be a more confident player after the first session. We have had two sessions and my son cannot wait to get to the next one. Coach Marcus is very knowlegeable and kind, and inspires my son to practice even more on his own. All in all, he is an awesome coach and helps my son be a better player.
Update: My son has been working with Coach Marcus for awhile now and we have noticed great progress. He met his goal of making and playing on the JV team at school, and he shows more confidence and maturity since working with him. He has established measurable goals which I believe make him more motivated to practice on his own. Coach Marcus has a gift of the ability to remain kind and encouraging while still pushing my son to do his best and move outside his “comfort zones.” I believe this coach-player relationship helps my son be a better person on and off the court. Coach Marcus is not only a coach, but also a positive role model in my son’s life.
Martin (CoachUp client)
I reached out to Coach Marcus to work on my shooting. We worked on useful improvements to my shooting form and setup mechanics through various shooting drills. He guided me along, answered questions, and provided future recommendations. Very experienced, knowledgeable, and fun.
