More About Coach Najee

Head Varsity basketball coach at The O’Neal School (Southern Pines, NC). I have experience working with athletes of all ages and skill levels from elementary to college/pro. I have also held individual 1 on 1 trainings as well as group trainings.

I played 4 years of high school basketball as a point guard, 3 years of varsity football as the starting quarterback, and 1 year of varsity baseball as starting pitcher/left field. I also played Division 1 basketball at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore.

The 3 keys things I try to focus on during a workout session are discipline, determination, and dedication. When an athlete can have those 3 key factors they will not only succeed on the court, but off the court as well.
I start all my workouts with stretching, but the drills and techniques depends on the athlete. I ask all my athletes what are weaknesses in their game and that’s what we start and I begin to help them grow there game to the next level.

Coach Najee is the real deal. The structure of his workouts make sense. Each activity has a real purpose that practically translates to actual game action. After just two sessions we are seeing a lot of growth and development skill wise.

Najee has been a great addition to Ella's training. In a few short sessions, you can already see a difference!

Coach Fitz worked really hard with my 9 year old grandson. He provided well structured guidance in all the fundamentals. My grandson was excited, motivated and tired after the session. Excellent experience and I would recommend Coach Fitz.

Greatness is him

Coach Najee is excellent in addressing the player weaknesses and improving agility, ball handling and shooting skills. My son says he would rank him in the top two best trainers he has encountered on Coach Up.

My son felt encouraged but received helpful feedback.

Great session, made it challenging enough for my skill level. Will definitely book more sessions.

Excellent basketball directions for my son!Great attitude!Really good coach!If My son continues with coach Fitzgerald sky will never be the limit!!

After our 1st session my son said that Coach Najee was a good coach and that he learned a lot from him. He liked that he not only explained certain basketball techniques but showed them how to do it. He really enjoyed his session and feels he can learn a lot from Coach Najee and is excited to return. Thank you for your understanding, patience, kindness, and help with coaching my child and others.

Great coach.

Coach Najee is a great coach. He’s patient and gives each child hands on training. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to improve or perfect their basketball skills. He’s also very friendly!

Coach Najee always does a great job being patient with the kids. His drill build confidence in their abilities over time and I can definitely tell a difference in my son when he works with Najee. We've only been doing training once a week (5 sessions), but I can tell if Langston continued to work with Najee he'd get better.

Coach Najee is very knowledgeable and he made my son feel comfortable. He also communicates very well with me as a parent and my son. I would recommend him to anyone. I like his approach to coaching.
