Peyton A.

As a current NCAA Division II women’s basketball player at Cal State Monterey Bay, I bring firsthand experience, passion, and knowledge of the game to every session I lead. This summer, I’m excited to expand my coaching skills by working with youth at basketball camps hosted by NBC Basketball and Point Guard College, two of the most respected names in skill development.

In addition to camp coaching, I’m launching my own local basketball training business focused on athletes ages 15 and under. My goal is to help young players build strong fundamentals, improve their basketball IQ, and grow their confidence both on and off the court. I love working with youth athletes and tailoring each session to their unique needs and goals. Whether you’re just getting started or looking to sharpen specific skills, I’m here to support your journey.

I am currently a collegiate athlete competing at the NCAA Division II level for Cal State Monterey Bay’s women’s basketball team. Throughout my athletic journey, I’ve had the honor of earning several recognitions for both my performance and leadership on the court.

In high school, I was named Athlete of the Year, recognizing my dedication, work ethic, and impact across multiple seasons. One of the highlights of my career was being selected in 2023 for the Stephen Curry Underrated Tour, a national platform backed by the NBA to spotlight high-potential athletes who embody resilience and drive. Being part of that experience not only challenged me but also inspired me to help develop and uplift the next generation of players.

A typical training session with me is focused, energetic, and tailored to the athlete’s specific goals and skill level. I start each workout with a dynamic warm-up to prepare the body and prevent injury, followed by ball-handling drills to build control, confidence, and coordination under pressure.

From there, we move into skill development based on the athlete’s needs—whether it’s shooting mechanics, finishing around the rim, defensive footwork, or improving court vision and decision-making. I emphasize game-like reps and high-intensity drills that translate directly to in-game situations. For younger athletes, I also include fun, competitive challenges to keep things engaging and boost their love for the game.

Every session ends with a brief reflection or Q&A to talk through progress, identify areas for growth, and build the athlete’s basketball IQ. My goal is to create a supportive, disciplined environment where athletes feel encouraged to push themselves and take their skills to the next level.
