Sessions begin with Character building discussions utilizing a Christian Worldview, followed by conditioning, and training/development. Our focus above all else is improving the overall athlete, beginning with his/her self-identity and understanding their purpose. We believe once you can accept and understand your purpose, you will be more committed to learning and improving.

Clear communicator; inclusive of all boys; Liam feels very happy and challenged. Excellent coach!

Coach Westly will take your child from average to greatness. My Son automatically started working on the tools given to him from the very 1st session. From Setting goals to working on dribbling techniques. Its not about just playing basketball with him, it about developing a way of life for the future for these kids. I highly recommend him for any child.

Coach Westly did an awesome job training my son. His knowledge and expertise in basketball really help my son to be a better player. My son enjoyed the intense training, while learning the fundamentals. I will definitely book Coach Westly again.

I signed both my boys age 12 and 15 up for practice to help them learn basketball skills and to build their confidence. They usually resist but after just one session, there were no complaints and no resistance to signing back up. Thanks Coach. They had fun and didn't even know they were learning at the same time.

Thanks Coach Westly, you did an outstanding job. I was very pleased with your professionalism in being on time and having the proper equipment to train my son. I was most impressed with how you handled the young lady that was getting frustrated. That in itself showed me that you not only train basketball but you handle life skill situation well with kids. Thanks

I wished I would have found Coach Westly when my sons first intrest in basketball started. He is a great coach he's patient and he is helping my son brush up on his fundamentals. Will recommend!!!

My son has trained with many coaches, but by far Coach Westly is one of his favorites. Additionally, his quick response time and immediate feedback regarding areas of improvement were appreciated as my son knows exactly what he needs to focus on when he is not in a training session. Keep up the amazing work Coach Westly.....behind every good athlete is a passionate trainer and we appreciate the passion you exhibit on and off the court!!!!

Great workout!

Coach Wesley was just what my child needed! Planning on signing up for more before the start of next season. He really knows his stuff and helped my daughter not only understand the mechanics of the game better but also how to push herself to reach her goals.

My son had his first coaching session with Coach Westley today and he LOVED it...I've already booked another session!!!

Coach Westly is great, he was prepared, energetic and professional. The first training was educational with great lessons on form and improvements. My son looks forward to working more with Coach Westly.

The work out with coach wesley was very good. I would recommend to others.

What a great coach! 😀

My Son can certainly tell the top level of training that Coach Jones is giving him and it's only the first session. We are excited to have Coach Jones as his Coach.

Coach Wesley is an awesome coach! He is very knowledgeable and relates well with my son. I'm really glad we chose him to help my son take his game to the new t level!

I would highly recommend Westly Jones. He worked with my son to improve his basketball skills and provided guidance and drills in areas he needed to work on as a freshman new to the team. He was able to evaluate my sons “game” and offer suggestions that have made him a great success on the court. Great motivator and dedicated to mentoring youth. Thanks Coach Jones. JD Moore
Very special indeed, thank you Coaches Westly Jones and David Nassig Cmc Graham for making a special and unique experience for all of us this season! I will miss you both!
Our team will miss you next year Coach Jones! I would have never thought a team could improve that much in one year and its all because of our amazing coaches. We improved not only on the court but as people, learning that we can do anything if we work hard enough for it. Thank you.
I have complete respect for you Coach Jones, and will always look back on your words and how great you are as not just a coach but a person. Thank you for bringing us girls together and becoming a person that I will never forget in my life. I hope the best for you!
Coah Jones , I will never forget my first season as a Lady Jaguar basketball player and it's all thanks to you, our other coaches, and my team . I will always remember how you pushed me to shoot all the time and when I got frustrated you kept telling me it will fall . I'll never forget you keeping me after practice everyday until my arm was about to fall off . I don't know what our Lady Jags next year are going to do without two of our amazing coaches . Thy will be missing out ! You haven't just change me as a basketball player but also as a person and I think it's safe to say that it goes for everyone when I say, I'll never forget this season . I don't think I can say thank you enough . I'll miss you more than I can put it words .
