More About Coach Ricky
I have been coaching and training for 7 years. I have trained and coached from elementary to college level basketball players. I continue to coach now as the head coach of Conrad Academy and am also a Coach with SOH Elite.
I played high school basketball. I coached at Ocoee High School where we made it the the elite 8 and I also coached multiple division 1 players.
You can expect to work hard. Conditioning and basketball fundamentals. I like to teach and train on basketball fundamentals and elevate the players skills. Conditioning will be a big part, as you need to be in shape to play the game.

Shay (CoachUp client)
Coach Ricky has been impressive to my daughter and I. She has improved her skills in such a short period of time time working with Coach. She has improved physically, her shots have improved and she works extremely hard at home with suggested workouts by Coach. This has been an phenomenal experience!!!!
R (CoachUp client)
Coach Ricky is a great coach. He really connected with our son. He jumped right in and assessed his skill level and then methodically began to start teach the fundamentals
From shooting form, dribble and layups. Very practical not theoretical. Our son said he has never worked out as hard…a good thing. Coach Ricky provided practice drills to follow up for next lesson. Highly recommend Coach Ricky.

Rachel (CoachUp client)
Coach Ricky is truly the real deal when getting your child prepared for basketball. He is on time, prepared, motivational, encouraging, and very professional. He did a wonderful job with my Son for his first session. He definitely knows what he's doing when it comes to training. I would highly recommend him, and we will be using him from now on for my Son's basketball trainer.
Chris (CoachUp client)
Ricky provided such a safe environment for my son. That’s the biggest thing for any parent when selecting a trainer for your child. Ricky focused on the fundamentals helping build a benchmark and also weaved in conditioning but in a fun way. 100% recommended and will continue to use him!
