Amina (CoachUp client)
My son had a great time with Coach Richard! He loved his passion for the game, and for teaching. He particularly appreciated that Coach Richard showed him examples of what he was looking for, as he trained.
Lorraine (CoachUp client)
After just one session with Coach Richard, we are thrilled! His energy and ability to connect with kids is fantastic. Our 9-year-old son had a great time and couldn’t stop telling everyone about the experience. He can't wait for his next session. In his own words, "He was tough, but patient, fun, nice, and went at my pace." We highly recommend Coach Richard to anyone looking for a positive and skilled basketball coach. Thank you, Coach!

I like that the coach was professional and has very good energy!
I feel great knowing that Coach Richard is my coach and will assist with my basketball trainings.
Liz (CoachUp client)
My daughter and I really appreciated the 1/1 session. She found it extremely helpful. The direct and specific instructions for her weaknesses and strengths will give her things to work on on her own as well and she already feels like she gained great knowledge. Looking forward to more sessions! Extremely thorough coaching well worth the investment.

My son has had 2 sessions with Coach Richard and both have been great. He is easy to schedule and communicate with, and there are no issues with \rescheduling, changing times, etc....

Coach Richard did an outstanding job teaching me the game of basketball. I have never had any type of coach or basketball training previously and after one hour I was able to dribble up and down court comfortably! He also corrected my shot, taught me some of the finer points of what to do on offense to get open and every drill we did had some purpose. I am signing up for more lesson and would highly reccomend Coach Richard to anyone looking to step there game up from a technical standpoint as well as to boost confidence while playing! Thank you!

Jeffrey (CoachUp client)
My 13 year old daughter had her first session with coach Rich. Right to work he put her. He corrected her shot, instant improvement. He ran so many helpful drills, even though she was wiped out at the end, a smile never left her face. I am going to book more meetings with him right now! Highly, highly recommended coach with great methods.

My daughter thoroughly enjoyed her first session tonight and is looking forward to more. Her words: "He knows quickly what is being done right and what is being done wrong and works on giving me the steps I need to make corrections. He has reasons for every drill he has you do." Thank you Coach Richard for a great session - she's ready for more!

Garilyn (CoachUp client)
Coach Richard is an awesome coach!😃 He's very patient and takes things nice and slow until you get better at a skill.
Victoria (CoachUp client)
We just finished a very good and productive session with Coach Richard. My 12-year-old daughter worked hard, but smiled the whole time. The balance of skills for shooting, footwork, agility, and ball handling were well-balanced. He established a rapport with her quickly, made it fun for her, but pushed her - which is exactly what she needs to improve. He was easy to work with, friendly and professional. We look forward to more sessions.

Jamaal (CoachUp client)
Coach Rich is absolutely amazing. The first thing that impressed me about him was how quickly he responded to my messages. The second thing that amazed me was his attention to detail, he was able to correct subtle footwork issues my son had that immediately had a positive impact. Then I was furthered blown away by how quickly he was able get results. During my son's first session he was able to correct his shooting form within a matter of minutes and towards the end in the session my son's shot was noticeably more consistent.
My son and I were very impressed with Coach Rich, he is a great motivator, very informative, has patience and really knows how to connect with his clients on an individual basis. Thanks Coach Rich, we are looking forward to our next session and have already decided to purchase even more sessions with you.
Kevin (CoachUp client)

Tony (CoachUp client)
Coach Rich was awesome, after just one session, he was able to pick up the strengths and weaknesses of my sons game. He really worked in the conditiong as part of the work out. We were very pleased and will be sending our son to more sessions jn the future. Thanks Coach
Josephine (CoachUp client)
Another great session tonight. Coach you are great on what you do. The smile on my son's face says it all. You boost him with confidence and he needs that because he is so hard on himself. Thank you.
Josephine (CoachUp client)
My son had his first session Saturday morning, I was amazed on what I saw from coach Rich. My son is a very energetic 10 year old and he never gets tired especially with basketball games or practices. The day of his first session I could tell he had completed drills that he was not used to or ever seen before. Long story short at the end of practice my son was tired which tells me the coach really work him up. My son and I were very pleased with coach Rich. That night he had a game and he used what he was taught and he was more confident on the court. He hit a 3 and made is foul shot. I have set up an additional 10 sessions with coach Rich as I know he will whip him into shape. Thank you coach.
Jordan (CoachUp client)
Amazing selection of drills and really keys in on his clients' weaknesses and builds on their strengths. Pushes you to your full potential and will not let you quit. It was great!
Lillian Chikwueze/ professional basketball player (Testimonial)
​I trained with Rich the summer prior to my first professional basketball season overseas. He put me through rigorous workouts that he knew would definitely get me ready for the professional level. I can truly say that he pushed me beyond my limits which allowed me to reach new levels. In one summer, I learned so much from Rich. He really focuses on sharpening the little details of your skills to help you take your game from good to great. Rich always put me through very challenging drills that worked on so many different aspects of my game. He challenged me physically and mentally. There’s no doubt that he is very knowledgeable in the game of basketball and helping players take their skills to the next level. I’m more than excited to be working with him again this summer to take my game a step further and prepare myself for another season overseas. - Lillian Chukwueze
