More About Coach Prince

In high school I was always drawn to coaching and training others in basketball and fitness during which I worked with around 20 kids my age or younger who came to me for guidance. Officially I have been coaching for 3 years and have worked with Niagara Studio, PPA, headfirst, and several former professional/collegiate players. Over the past 3 years I have been blessed to have worked with over 200 kids and counting. I have worked with all levels from young beginner to D1 athletes.

In high school I played on Long Reach and Howards varsity teams on top of the number 1 travel team in the area during the time. During my time with the Maryland Jaguars I was able to help the coach put a team together from scratch and go on to play numerous undefeated seasons and take home the championship trophies. After blowing out many of the local high school teams and the top private schools we got invited to play in the adult league my senior year. After high school I ended up hanging up the jersey to pursue entrepreneurship, but have found my way back to the basketball court.

A typical session will start with a goal optimized warmup followed by a mastermind segment where the athlete and I discuss a certain topic that applies to both the workout and life improvement. Foundation is key so to get into the workout we will go through a series of workouts/drills that set the proper techniques up for our focus that day. Depending on how fast the athlete picks up the concepts I will either increase the intensity of the specific exercise or reserve 10 minutes towards the end for a burnout challenge.

Coach prince was patient and did well with keeping my 5yr old son engaged. He implemented fun drills throughout the practice and followed up with exercises we could practice at home. We will definitely utilize him more consistently to work with our son.

Coach Prince is a great instructor for kids. My little daughter was afraid of having lessons with an unknown coach, but he made her feel confident with games, and she got into the class soon. My children had fun in the class and worked on the exercises he taught. Coach Prince is always looking to master their skills in basketball.

I’m very satisfied with his work.

Coach Prince is great at what he does. He Ha a talent for teaching and instructing. My son has enjoyed his time so far and is looking forward to even more training sessions with Coach Prince. He also is enjoying the homework assignments Coach Prince has him doing. Location is ideal for personal training.

Coach Prince has been working with my cousin and his friend for a few sessions, and I see a huge difference in their confidence and skill! They always look forward to working with Prince for the next session.

Very professional coach with a lot of good teaching techniques. Very patient and good with kids! My son really enjoyed the class.

Coach was excellent! My son enjoyed his first of 4 sessions. He feels that he has learned a ton already and is already applying the skills he has a gained. Coach was very patient and excelled at getting my son engaged in the session. Will defiantly continue to use. We were impressed ! Keep up the good work.

Coach Prince did an awesome job with my two daughters, ages 11 and 10. He worked on their dribbling fundamentals paying attention to detail and correcting bad form and habits. Exactly what I was looking for in terms of building foundational skills.

Coach Prince is phenomenal!! After only 3 sessions with Prince, my two sons (ages 9 and 11) have made enormous strides!! They have so much fun and get such effective training with him - he's the best!

Great first session!

Coach Prince is an excellent coach. He is patient and very specific with how he helps the kids improve their game.

Great first session!

Nothing but high regards for this young man and his ability to not only relate to his students, but provide valuable coaching and techniques for on and off the court. My kids truly enjoyed his teaching style which was firm but fun. I see improvement in their game already!

Would definitely recommend!

I initially signed my 12 year old son up for 4 sessions with coach Prince. After observing the 1st session, I knew that coach Prince was precisely the type of coach and person that my son needed to properly learn and develop his skills. Prince has a fantastic demeanor and personality and as others have mentioned the right kind of patience needed to develop skills and confidence in young kids. I've committed to 6 months of training and have no doubt my son will be drastically improved in all facets of the game.

I am very happy that my son, Blake, is being coached by Prince. Coach Prince is not only very knowledgeable and skilled in basketball, but he is fantastic at teaching and coaching kids. He understands what it takes to teach younger kids and has a lot of patience which is why we singed up for the summer clinic.

My 11-year-old son and his friend took their first lesson with Coach Prince. It was their first even basketball lesson. Coach was very patient and taught them basic dribbling and shooting skills. We could see improvement already after the first lesson. The best of all, Coach Prince has access to an indoor facility, which is a huge plus during the hot summertime.

Coach Prince N. is an excellent coach. After just the first session with him. I was able to learn new aspects about about dribbling a basketball I never knew. He pays good attention to detail and gives sound advice. I will definitely take multiple sessions with him.

Excellent first session. My daughter plays high school and AAU ball and loved his approach to training. We’ll be booking more sessions!!

Good stuff. Definitely knows what he’s talking about, and is a good assessor of strength and weakness.

My son loved Coach Prince. He worked very well with my son and showed him a lot of good techniques, even sent daily homework assignments to improve his skill. I would absolutely recommend him.

My son enjoyed his session with Coach Prince and is confident that this is the training that will elevate his game. Five stars!

Coach Prince Niagara is fantastic! His ability to quickly make my daughter feel comfortable and at ease was phenomenal. We have had two sessions with him and my daughter’s ability and skill improvement is noticeable. He understands not only game mechanics, but takes the time to explain the “why” behind his direction and suggestions. My daughter is excited to continue training with him.

Great coach. Really strong on fundamentals. Looking forward to more lessons.

Coach Prince is a great coach. My son liked his coaching style and the homework given. He focused on the fundamentals (dribbling, passing, shooting) through various different drills and exercises.Homework was ready and given immediately. I would definitely recommend Coach Prince.

My son had a great first session with Coach Prince! He is a patient person, knowledgeable about the sport and good with kids.

Coach Prince was professional, patient and detailed. He was on time for our first training and also stayed a bit after to discuss a homework and training plan with our son. You can tell he is invested. Thank You'

Although this is our first session, we still have 4 more weeks to go but the first impression matters, he showed that he really knew what he was doing, the way he kept observing my son and correcting his mistake was very interesting, and I could see also that he is very good with kids

Very professional and understands what you want.

Coach prince is an outstanding coach. My granddaughter truly enjoyed his approach to training and felt at ease quickly due to his welcoming personality. Coach Prince taught her various techniques to improve the physical aspect of her game and built up her confidence as well. I would highly recommend Coach Prince!

Good trainer and very patient with me learning and didn’t give up on me

Very patient in training

Prince was awesome with my seven year old son and his friends. They learned a lot, had fun, and were engaged the whole time. Prince is also super responsive and communicative.

Great coach. I happen to be very out of shape due to the pandemic. He is sowly bringing me back into shape and working on technique with freethrows.

Coach Prince has been great! He invests a lot in each kid and my son has loved working with him.

Focused on some real solid teaching of skills and connected with my 6yo. Easygoing, prompt, responsive and good all around. I’d recommend Prince to anyone without hesitation.

Coach Prince is great! His sessions are super fun and engaging for the kids. They always walk off the court having learned new skill as well as a life lesson that will help them grow and develop as players.

My son loves working with Coach Prince. He is challenged and motivated by Coach’s approach to basketball. Beyond physical skills building, Coach Prince invests in the psychology and emotion behind basketball. My son comes home quoting Coach’s inspirational guidance. And I appreciate the how Coach engages parents and keeps us updated on how the kids are progressing. We are so grateful to be working with Coach Prince and we recommend him!!

Hey Prince - thanks so much for being a great coach for these guys! You really motivated them to play and to do their best and stick with it, even though this was their first season of organized hoops. We will definitely request you when we sign up for PPA again. Best of luck in the mean time!
Hi Coach! Thanks so much for the great season. The kids really enjoyed having you as a coach and seriously learned and improved so much. It’s a group that was a mix of kids who had never played beyond gym class so what you were able to do was pretty incredible. And I drove a group of the kids to most practices and they only had positive things to say about you. These guys don’t holdback so that’s saying something. We would love to return, but we are moving to Louisiana at the end of the school year. I’m sure you can keep the rest of the team rolling. I’ll send a note to the director letting him know how much we enjoyed having you as a coach. Thanks again!
