More About Coach Steven
I started out coaching middle school the year I graduated college and moved back to my hometown. I was the head 8th grade coach for a year and then moved up to the head freshmen job. During the time I was head freshmen coach, I also was an assistant for the Junior Varsity team, along with the Varsity team at Edison High School. This past year I moved up to the top varsity assistant position. During all this, I have also coached a select group of elementary school students and taken them around to local tournaments in order to better the program I work for. I enjoy all ages and ability levels.
I have played basketball my entire life. I was a three year letter winner in high school and a two year starter. I made first team eastern district my senior year and second team all-OVAC. I also play every week in a very competitive men’s adult league near my home.
A session with me typically starts out with some basic fundamental shooting drills and techniques. Then we would move on to some ball handling drills, because no matter what level you are at, you always need to work on your ball handling. Next we would move on to individual offensive moves, shooting, and finishing strong at the rim. If there is a specific skill the individual would like to focus on improving then I would incorporate that into the session. I always like to spend a good portion of time on defense: footwork, positioning, technique, and effort. I always like to close a session with some type of game or skills competition. This helps the player set goals for improvement for the next session and later down the road, shows the player their improvement. I also like to give the player something I want them to work on at home in between sessions. Because if you want to become a great player, you are going to have to put in the extra work on your own as well as with me and in practice. I have learned to adapt to a player’s needs. If the player would like to focus on a specific weakness, goal, or need, I will adapt to the athlete.

Dawn (CoachUp client)
Steve has been very instrumental in not only developing my sons basketball skills, but his confidence on the court. My son plays in 2 local leagues and i believe he has taken his game to a higher level because of Steve's coaching and knowledge of the game. We strongly recommend Steve's sessions to anyone wanting to learn and improve their game and take it to the next level!
