More About Coach Patrice

My passion for basketball is something that God has given me and I know that my purpose is tied to it. I consider coaching basketball to be a fulfillment of that purpose.

I have been coaching for 20 years. I have coached boys and girls, from 2nd grade to 10th grade at all skill levels. I've coached at the Boys and Girls Club, MAYB, AAU and a schools.

I started private training about 6 years ago. I want to provide every player with a solid foundation first, then build upon that. I think what is lacking in some programs is the teaching of fundamentals. That is why private sessions are so important because I can build on a player's strengths and strengthen a player's weaknesses in an environment that is not intimidating.

I evaluate each player's strengths and weaknesses and I also allow them to tell me what his/her goals are and what they would like to accomplish. I begin each session with a warm up and dynamic stretching. Then we will get into some drills to reinforce the fundamentals. Then depending on the focus for that session, we will get into some skill development for that area, while incorporating secondary skills as well.

I reinforce the concept of the brain as the most important muscle not just in basketball, but in life. Not only do I teach players the game of basketball, but they learned life lessons, such as responsibility, accountability, teamwork, sacrifice, discipline and consequences for their actions. I want to encourage the players not to give up and I do not want anyone to miss out on his/her dream due to a lack of confidence or support.

Played point and shooting guard. Defense, reading the floor and moving without the ball are very important. It is also important to get your teammates involved. The more the team is successful, the more you are successful.

Customized for the player:
- All players should have some ball handling skills
- Will train for all positions where applicable
- Will work on all of the fundamentals as well as the mental aspect of the game

Coach Patrice identified our son’s weaknesses and went straight to work on helping him improve. Her approach was creative and our son really liked her training. He is a better and stronger player working with her.

Coach Patrice was great! My son has played for many years, and she was able to identify my his skill gaps in that first hour and come up with a plan.

Coach Patrice was great! She had my son working hard, was very encouraging and knew how to keep him engaged. He learned so much in just one session and was super excited about it.

Coach Patrice is wonderful coach and person. She is coaching my daughter and her friend currently. She teach the kids all good advanced/basic skills and correct their mistake.

I strongly recommend her for your kids if you are looking for one.

Coach Reed is a class act. I booked a session for my 11 year old son and saw an immediate impact. She pushed him out of his comfort zone and allowed him to see he is capable of so much more...in just one session. It was a joy to watch. I immediately booked 3 more sessions. Thanks, Coach!

Hanna first session with Patricia was awesome. Hanna responded to her well and in an hr found a few areas to work on. After the session. Hanna let me know she wanted to continue working with her. So we have re upped for more sessions.

Excellent, patient and very knowledgeable. Hands on coaching and analysis of players. Perfect training for point guards.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Coach Patrice. My son has only had 2 lessons so far, but he says he already feels more confident in his abilities. She is professional, helpful, and overall, just the best thing I have done for my son in a long time. While his confidence has been shot recently, since his team moved up to Select, gaining more players who are better than him, I feel like he may have a chance to shine again. Thank you to Coach Patrice. She is awesome!!!

Coach Patrice did great with my boys. She is professional and flexible with our schedule.

Coach Patrice is Awesome! She has taught my daughter so much. She is patient and really knows her stuff! After only a few sessions I already notice a big difference. My daughter is learning the fundamentals and post moves and she is excited and looks forward to training with Patrice twice a week and that makes me happy. I would most definitely recommend her.

The first session was very good

My daughter's performance has already improved after just a few lessons with Coach Patrice. My daughter's movement around the basket has improved and she is not rushing her shot as often.

My daughter is going on her 3rd session and she is enjoying her time. Coach Patrice has done a wonderful job with my daughter. Coach Patrice is a great supporter showing it through enthusiasm and praise. If my daughter doesn't get it quite right......try try try again is what I see taking place. My daughter is very comfortable around Coach Patrice to where she is able to laugh and ask questions openly. It has been a fantastic experience thus far.

Coach Patrice really worked well with Dexter. She quickly identified the fundamentals that he needed to focus on and then tailored the practice to fit those needs. I am looking forward to our next session with Coach Patrice!

Coach Patrice is fantastic and I would strongly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a great coach to work on the fundamentals.

I came across CoachUp over the summer -- our daughter had played basketball in youth leagues the past two years and really enjoyed it -- we thought a personal coach would be a great way to stoke the fire of interest and passion while working on the fundamentals. I was concerned about getting a coach who could not only provide great coaching but provide it in a atmosphere that was warm, engaging, and fun to ensure my daughter continued her passion. I chose Patrice based on the other reviews and the fact her passion came through in her writeup -- I am happy to say the passion comes through in person as well.

Patrice has conducted several sessions with my daughter since that time -- we have "re-upped" a few times since then. In each session, she has worked on good basketball fundamentals and drills -- sometimes in a one-on-one setting and other times with other players. The mix has worked well allowing my daughter to work on the things she needs to do while also getting a level of competition.

Over that time, I noticed a change in my daughter's abilities towards basketball -- her dribbling, passing, shooting, movement, etc. have all improved. At school, she is always playing basketball with the boys and is often one of the first "picks". She had her first formal practice with her league team recently. While the other girls were doing well with the drills, it is easy to see that my daughter was having absolutely no problem and in fact was excelling. Her team's coach came over to me during practice and asked if she had been playing ball recently given he was very impressed about her level of improvement. She is already positioning herself as a "starter" for the team and seems to have all the confidence about what to do with the ball.

This level of improvement is directly attributable to the skills that she learned from Coach Patrice. We will definitely be using her again, either during the season to work on areas of improvement, or in the offseason to make sure her skills continue to grow. I cannot recommend Coach Patrice enough (and the entire CoachUp experience).

Coach Patrice is great! Our son has had one lesson with her so far and he's ready for the next one! She worked with him for the full hour on a wide range or fundamentals and most importantly made it fun for him. When we got home he immediately started working on what she taught him. We're looking forward to more lessons from her.

Coach Patrice is great! She was very organized and easy to communicate with. She was very attentive and easily identified what my daughter needed to work on and she tailored the session to fit my daughter's needs. She showed her proper technique as well as explained to her the why you would move or stand a certain way. My daughter really enjoyed the practice and can't wait to have her next session.

We've only had one session with Coach Patrice, but I've already signed up for a new package of five future sessions. My daughter loves her and can't wait to continue on with her training. Coach Patrice was knowledgeable, patient, enthusiastic and just super nice. The deciding factor on something like this for me is whether or not my kid wants to go back. In this case that's an emphatic yes. She is organized, follows up promptly, arrives when she says, and is a pleasure to deal with. I would definitely recommend her and am looking forward to attending many sessions with her managing my daughter's progress.

She did a great job.

Coach Patrice has been great with kids. She enforces discipline yet keeps it fun with positive reinforcement via small awards. The team titans has benefitted a lot in their defence skills as well as learning winning strategies.

Coach Patrice has been an awesome trainer for my son. I started by only committing to one session to see if she would be a good fit for my son. I was very impressed after the first session and committed to 10 additional sessions. She started the sessions by giving my son an assessment to determine the skills he needed to develop most. She then implemented a workout regiment specific to my son and his needs. She has even attended a few of his games on her own time and provided feedback. She always updates us on his strengths and weaknesses in addition to workouts we can do to help him improve his skills outside of the sessions. She is very flexible and has even come to my home to train my son. I just booked 10 additional sessions and will continue to use her. I highly recommend Coach Patrice to develop any child trying to take their game to the next level.

Patrice did a fabulous job coaching my 9 year old son! She was prompt and extremely organized. She kept the session moving and interesting with many different exercises. He learned a lot- I think she will be very helpful in improving his basketball skills. We look forward to scheduling more sessions with her in the near future.
