More About Coach Tavares
I genuinely love to train young men and women. I love to push them into becoming the best athletes they can be; while teaching them to be confident and to believe in themselves. I've coached at various basketball camps and recreation centers with multiple age groups. UMD Skills Camp, Vansville Recreation Center Skills Camp, Berwyn Heights Camp. I am certified in First Aid and CPR/Health and wellness.
I played 3 years of Varsity Basketball in High school, Co-Captain Jr year, and Captain Sr year. Lead my team in Steals, Assists Jr and Sr year; Currently I am a Division 2 athlete, played two years of college ball at Garrett College.
Clients can expect a fun, rigorous, skill-enhancing session. They should come prepared to be pushed beyond their limits and to leave better than they were before.
First we would start with Running stretches to loosen and warm the body up to prevent the likely hood of injury. Next, We would start with ball-handling drills to strengthen both hands and coordination with the ball; after I would put them through a series of shooting, lay-up drills, incorporating conditioning and strength training with the regimen. All in all, it's about getting better and having fun while doing it, that's my ultimate goal!

Client Reviews
Stacey (CoachUp client)
Coach Tavares is great!!! Great personality and very professional. My son is 14 yrs. old and from the very first session I saw how comfortable and confident my son felt out on the court with Coach Tavares. He takes notice of a person's skill level and pushes those skills to a whole new athletic level. Coach's training and techniques are one of a kind. We are so glad we found him. I would definitely recommend Coach Tavares to anyone.
Mohsin (CoachUp client)
Coach Tavares is extremely knowledgeable about the game of basketball. He really customizes the workout specifically for the individual and pushes hard. I hope to work with him more.
