More About Coach Paulina

I've been playing organized basketball for fifteen years.
I played college basketball for the University of Illinois-Springfield, where I was all-conference my senior year. Additionally, I held the school's record for blocked shots and rebounding. My junior year I led my team in scoring, steals, and rebounding.

I have been coaching for three years and I am currently a coach at the collegiate level.
My typical session will cater to what the athlete needs. I would typically work on agility, strength, skills, dribbling, rebounding, shooting, form, and defense with the player to help them improve.

I was a 4-Year Collegiate Athlete and captain of the team. I averaged 14 points, 9 rebounds, 3 blocks, and 3 steals a game. Prior to college I was MVP of my high school varsity basketball team my junior and senior years.

I customize shooting, dribbling, rebounding, and defensive drills to best suit the player's skill level. Footwork and conditioning are also key to helping the athletes maximize their potential during our sessions.

Fantastic session with our son, Tyler. Tyler was at ease right away with Paulina's confident and nice demeanor. He had a dynamic workout where he learned so much more than he would have in a group setting. He is begging for more sessions and already looks more aggressive and confident on the court. Paulina was able to pinpoint Tyler's basketball level and structure the training session to his individual wants and needs. Thanks for a great session!

Good, even disposition. Respectful to my child. Creative drills. Really liked her!

Coach Paulina is a great coach that exhibits professionalism and expertise. She takes the time to teach proper technique and form and has become a strong, positive, female role model to my nine year old daughter. Her coaching has help my daughter tremendously both on and off the court. I would highly recommend Coach Paulina.

Coach Paulina worked with my 10 year old daughter very well. My daughter was comfortable with her right away and improved with each session.

My daughter Kendra connected right away with Coach Paulina and felt that, "she really knows the game". Kendra was in need of a personal connection to allow her to get the most out of her game and hopefully become a starter for her senior year.

Coach Paulina was very knowledgeable and patient. Her fundamental drills on footwork and free throw shooting had an immediate impact on my son. I look forward to continue working with her in the future

Coach Paulina is a great coach. After just one session our son is already feeling more confident and wants to continue with her to improve his basket ball skills

Paulina is a fantastic coach! Her background in coaching is extremely beneficial, as she definitely understands and knows how to teach the game of basketball. I appreciate how she demonstrates and explains small, but very important details that give competitive players an advantage over their opponents. I plan to work with Coach Paulina again in the near future to improve my game.
