More About Coach Philip

I believe in instilling the fundamentals of the game of basketball for these are the building blocks to everything else. I begin my session with agility, footwork and basketball movement drills to establish the neccesary footwork to play the game. Than I go into dribbling,shooting, passing, rebounding work. I enjoy working with all levels of talent and ages. I coach varsity high school basketball and run camps in the summer for all age groups.

I played basketball and baseball in college and was all conference in both sports as well as PAC player of the year in basketball. I hold the record for both field goal % and free throw % for Arcadia University. As a coach I took my team to the semi finals of State. I have won the Logos Prep Tournament. My whole life has been involed in sports my knowledge and ability to teach the fundamentals of the game of basketball is exceptional. I have trained and continue to train several NBA players such as Mike James, Johnny Flynn, Thadeous Young, Deandre Jordan, J.R. Smith, T.J. Ford and many others.

First learn what it is you want to improve on. Get to know the player I am training and what he or she is looking to acheive. Set up there goals and a plan to acheive there goals. Once the session begins we will work on the fundamentals of dribbling. Drills will consist of cone drills, 2 ball dribbling drills, speed drills and weak hand drills. We will than work on floaters and runner drills and shots close to the basketball. We will than proceed to agility and plyometric drills to establish core strength. Fundamental of the jump shot will than be taught highlighting proper shooting techinque and shot pocket drills. As we progress I will be able to see where we need more focus and structure the session around those skills.

Coach Phillip is very knowledgeable and did a great job with my daughter. He works hard from beginning to the end of the session.

Coach Marucci was absolutely phenomenal: professional but encouraging throughout my son’s workout. When you hear him explain his reasoning for executing drills and moves in certain ways, you can appreciate that this is someone who truly knows basketball - and (more importantly) how to teach it. He manages to pack a good amount of work into a one hour practice session while still keeping my son engaged and having fun. We can’t wait for our next sessions…

Coach Phillip is excellent. Very patient and friendly while applying the basis of the game.

COACH PHILLIP IS AN EXCELLENT COACH. HE IS PATIENT AND A TRUE TEACHER OF THE GAME OF BASKETBALL. I DO NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND HIS SERVICES

Excellent, excellent, excellent! Good communication with both me and my child. He has a wonderful way with children and speaks to their level of understanding. At the first session, he showed the student very minor details of the game that will make a big difference. We are greatly looking forward to more sessions. I highly recommend. Thank you!

Great coach will improve every aspect of a players game

After only two sessions, we have been pleased with the teaching aspect of the training...Coach Philip takes time to fully explain fundamentals...evaluates and corrects “on the go”. Look forward to gauging improvement as our son participates in additional training.

My sons first session with Coach Philip was a success! He quickly identified his errors, showed him what to do different and the results were instant. He also motivated him throughout the workout by letting him know he was doing a great job and was very patient. Coach Philip gave me feedback after the session and gave tips and homework to help my son improve between sessions. If you are looking for an amazing coach.... Coach Philip is your guy!

Coach did a great job working with my son

Great effective drills, looking forward to more sessions

Our first session was pretty good. An overall workout that shows all areas of my son’s game. It exposed weaknesses & areas that need improvement. The first session went well & some good data was conveyed. Give it a thumbs up!

Great coach! Me and my son look forward to continuing our training with him.

I was really impressed with Coach Phil. First of all he is a nice guy. He was very engaging with me and my son. His workout was very demanding and efficient. What impressed me the most was the way he evaluated my son. I didn't have to tell him what I thought he needed to work on. He watched him and within 5 minutes he knew what his strengths and weaknesses were and proceeded accordingly. We will definitely be training with Coach Phil again.

Our first session of was great. He focused all attention on my son and stayed focus the entire session. He corrected my sons weaknesses while encouraging him and staying positive. He gave me feedback after the session and gave tips and homework to help my son improve between sessions. My son can’t wait for next session! If you are looking for an amazing coach.... This is your guy.

Coach Philip is a WONDERFUL Coach and also my First Athletic Coach. I signed up with him without having knowledge of the basic fundamentals of basketball. After working with Coach Philip, my confidence has grown and so has my basketball skills. I cannot thank him enough for everything, My family and I appreciate him so much and I can't wait to sign up for more sessions, but I definitely will.

Really liked the first session. I stayed to watch the layout of the training Coach Phillip was introducing. My son needs work, but with hard work comes great success and we are willing to do whatever it takes to get there. Steven, my son, gave me some great feedback after the first session. Looking forward to the next session and many more to come.

My sons first session with Coach Philip was a success! He took the time to evaluate my son to see what his strengths and weaknesses were. He quickly identified his errors, showed him what to do different and the results were instant! He also motivated him throughout the workout by letting him know he was doing a great job and was very patient even if he didn't catch on right away. I would definitely recommend him to those looking for someone who is genuinely interested in helping them improve their game!

Coach Philip is very knowledgeable about the game of basketball. The shooting tips and dribbling drills were very valuable. Our son enjoyed the intense workout in 95 degree heat. Thanks for pushing him!

Worth for the price. Totally recommend it.

Coach M. is a great coach and knows exactly what needs to be done to get you to the next level. My jump shot and overall scoring ability improved significantly after just a few sessions. Hit the sessions hard in the offseason and you'll see great results.

Our first session with Coach Philip was great, his tips were valuable and my daughter was comfortable working with him in 10 minutes.

Great, cool, funny coach. Pushes you and motivates you to do your best, and teaches you how to have fun while doing it

We had our first session with Coach Philip and it was great! We all are very excited that we finally found a great trainer that we know that can help take my son to the next level. I would recommend Coach Philip to all future upcoming basketball stars!! So am very confident that our future star is now in good hands with Coach Philip as his trainer!!

Coach Phillip is an amazing coach who really taught me the correct shooting technique and helped me alittle with my dribbling! Amazing Coach!

Coach Philip did an amazing job of communicating and responding to my 15 yr old son who will start high school next fall. We were looking for a very good training solution for the summer and we found it in Coach Philip. My son who is introverted naturally was very receptive to his training methods, and when we left the session he was very excited going forward!

Coach Phillip is awesome. He's teaching my son the proper basic forms which has made a great impact in his confidence. Highly recommended!!

My son has experience his first one on one training with coach Philip and boy was he impressed. We have had other trainers prior to working with coach but he stands alone when it comes to technique and knowledge. Coach techniques are on point and define and is definitely what my 14yr old son was looking for. We will be planning more sessions so my son can take his game to the next level under coach supervision. Coach did a fantastic job and I would recommend anyone who is looking for proper training to contact coach Philip. Job well done Coach!!!!!!!!!

Great job by Coach Philip!

Coach Philip brought various techniques to my son's session. He made it challenging but fun as well. My son needed to learn the fundamentals of the game. He was very patient and positive, which made my son really enjoy his sessions. We saw noticeable improvements in shooting and ball handling skills after a few sessions. Great Coach.

Coach Philip is a great coach. My son has been working with him for 15 sessions, and he spoke highly about Coach Philip. My son has demonstrated significant improvement in a number of areas over the past few months. It is great to be able to witness his improvement. Thanks, Coach!

My grandson,Jonah,is 12plus years old.He loves basketball,but has never had any formal instructions.the first session started with warm up exercises,then agility and ball handling and basic shooting moves.The second session was a progression of the previous week.Jonah did well the third week,the 4th week was advanced ball control and shooting techniques.He had some difficulty here,and experienced patella tendon pain,which has subsided.The last session is still pending.
The instructions were excellent,demonstrations were easy to follow.Jonah is very agile and is progressing well under Coach Phillip guidance.

My daughters first session went really well. He was patient with the drills and the process. I was really impressed with the service he provided. I'm in the process of booking more sessions with Coach Phillips.

Coach Marucci has a gift of relating to kids at all levels. He encourages them where they are, while also trying to bring out the best in them to take their game to the next level.

Coach Philip is an outstanding Coach/Trainer. After my first session, I knew that my overall game would improve greatly. His training and techniques are like none I have had before. If you are looking for a professional Coach/Trainer, look no further, I recommend Coach Philip to anyone that wants to take it to a new level. Coach Philip is awesome!

O.J.

After two sessions of working with my son we immediately saw improvements. Coach Philip has helped my son gain more confidence and focuses on helping him improve on his weakness. He also talks to him in a way that helps him understand the drills and helps build his self-esteem. My son looks forward to the sessions and we look forward to continuing them as well. He's an awesome coach!

He is a great coach and I fell he can really help me and make me a better player.

It was great working with Coach Philip, he has taught me lots of fundamentals that i have never worked on until now. It was a great lesson and I'm ready more sessions with Coach Philip.

Coach Phillip was tremendous. My kids showed an "interest" in basketball, but after only a couple of sessions became passionate about it. My daughter had only ever played one season of YMCA ball, but after 2 months of working with Phillip, made her 8th grade team, and was a starting point guard by midseason. My son, unfortunately, didn't make his 7th grade team because he was the shortest kid trying out, but the coaches regretted it a few weeks later as he was destroying the starters as a scout team player. Bet they won't make that mistake next year! I highly recommend Phillip. He's an outstanding coach, motivates the players like I've never seen, has extremely high character, and always follows up with the parents. 5 stars!

best coach on here im gonna be a all star

Coach Philip is a great coach that I am looking forward to working with!

Coach Philip has been working with two of my daughters over the last month, & my only regret is we didn't get started sooner, I can tell coach has a plan for every session, he doesn't waste any time from one drill to the next, my girls are never standing around waiting on him to figure out what he wants to do. Coach has been upfront about where we are skill wise & what we need to work on to get better..... and most importantly they are getting better.... I will give another update after a few more sessions, but I can already tell we are on the right track.

My son is really enjoying Coach Philip's workouts with him. He left his first session exhausted but said it was the best work out he's had in a long while. He is a freshman and plays on the basketball team. He is excited to see what he can learn from this coach.
