More About Coach Richard
As a licensed I’m Possible Skills Trainer and certified TDSE Trainer, for the past three years, I have helped athletes from as young as 10 years old all the way to college and professional players. I am currently the Lead Skills Trainer at PickUp USA Fitness in Rancho Cordova.
As a junior, I played for my home country of Wales and went on to play at the University of Wales, Bangor. I don’t put too much stock in where trainers/coaches have played, however. Of course, it can help, but just because you can/could do it, that doesn’t mean you know how to teach it.
I typically divide my 1-hour sessions into thirds with the first 20 minutes being spent learning new ball handling or finishing methods, followed by learning a new set of footwork and/or shooting drills, and then combining these new techniques together within a more realistic game scenario so that players learn how to apply their skills.

Karen (Testimonial)
Coach Richard provided my son with some decoupling exercises that really made sense to my son. He’s been enthusiastically practicing the skills & drills every day. The 1-1 attention and support has been great.
Nav (Testimonial)
Excellent coach. Very knowledgeable and was great at explaining.
Aaron (Testimonial)
Coach Rich is excellent! He is easy and responsive to coordinate trainings with and he always shows up on time with great drills for skill development. He has a teaching style that is very positive but at the same time he is very good at getting the most out of our son. I would highly recommend coach Rich for anyone who is looking for a top tier basketball trainer!
Fredo (Testimonial)
Great coaching experience. He helped me fix my form and become a better dribbler. Would highly recommend.

Fran (Testimonial)
Coach Richard has been patient, enthusiastic and kind teaching my eleven year old son who is new to basketball but really wants to go out for the team next year. He loved his first session with Coach Rich so much he wouldn't stop talking about it and practicing. We have already booked more sessions. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, talented and patient coach for your kid, he is it!
