More About Coach Rashad

I started in 2008 coaching AAU through the Brandon Bolts, all ages, while attending Rennselaer Polytechnic Institute where I played. I continued until 2010 when I moved to Minnesota and joined Ultimate Hoops as a trainer. I trained high schoolers mostly and had clients from state champion Eden Prairie High, Hopkins, and other credible schools. Some clients are still playing division one like Graham Gordon. I moved back to Florida after success and helped start the Bolts back up after doing soley training. That continued up to 2015. I also did work with Pride Youth while in Minnesota.

Competed at the varsity level at Bayshore Christian as a freshman and sophmore. Averaged 14.5 points as a starter playing 4 positions and made honorable mention for all county as a sophmore and made it to district. 32 points as a career high against Calvary Christian. From 05' to 07' I played at Blooming Dale, all schools in Florida, where I started both years and averaged 14.5 points as well; making it to districts both years and runner up for district the district championship in 2007 as the number two team in the district. The same year we advanced to regionals. After that I played at RPI in Troy, Ny till 2010 and had some stints with the Southwest Florida Spartans and the Tampa Bay Rain. Both organizations shut down during the season, unfortunately. While coaching and training for the Bolts we had Pro Am teams that played against Maurice Speights (who I played against in high school at Bayshore), Austin Rivers, Nick Calatheas, Courtney Lee, Chucky Atkins, Jj Hickson, and overseas/NBA players like Majic Dorsey, Dominique Jones, Joey & Stephen Graham, Ronaldo Balkman, Maurice Speights, etc. Ask about my training alumni.

Group sessions are welcomed. Basic: Footwork, guard skills, shooting technique, conditioning is part of the process, explosiveness, shooting, DEFENSE, off ball movement, postwork, & basketball IQ.
Training is more so catered to client needs and desires if they are intermediate to advanced.

Coach Rashard was really good and really patient with me he knows a lot of secret to be a better player

In my son's first session with Coach Rashad, Coach brought a fresh perspective to basketball training I had not previously observed in other coaches. That perspective came in the form of new drills and moves that seemed up to speed and current with today's game and players. Good job Coach Rashad.

Coach Rashad was fantastic. He introduced my son to basic conditioning and worked with him on basic skills. We were visiting from North Carolina and my son wanted to spend his vacation training. I would highly recommend Coach Rashad.

Coach Rashad is incredible! He is skilled, and insanely knowledgeable. We cant wait to see our 14 year old son progress with Coach leading the way. Can't thank him enough, highly recommend.

Coach Rashad does a really good job and works to bring the best out of children. I would recommend him to anyone looking to increase basketball skill and confidence.

My 14 year old son went from enjoying playing basketball at the park to being the starting point guard in a league. Coach Rashad took his game to the next level by not only teaching the basics of ball handling, shooting, footwork, passing, guarding but also more advanced techniques like crossovers, pick 'n roll and reading defenses.

I think Rashad is great with kids and my grandson wanted to go back. This is a structured environment for Brandan, something he's never had before! We have had 2 sessions and I like what I see! Yes I would recommend Rashad to someone! Waiting to see what happens next as we continue! Thanks Nana Beryl

Great all around trainer, perfect guy to take you to that next level in your game if you're willing to work for it.

Coach Rashad helped me become a smarter and more explosive player. My skills have improved and die to his attention to the little things, I was able to learn advanced skills sooner than planned and I'm going to college because of that.
