More About Coach Zach

Hey Everyone! I'm Zach!
I am a current professional basketball player and former college coach. Last season I played for the Port City Power in Gladstone, Australia. I am currently in my off-season. Before Australia, I played in Israel. My basketball experience started as a child in Iowa. After an All-State high school career I went on to play at Division 1 Youngstown State University. I transfered my senior year to play for Iowa Wesleyan.

After college I coached at North Iowa College in Mason City, IA. Throughout high school and college I have always done private coaching. I have worked with all ages between 7-24, both boys and girls. I currently live in Philadelphia, PA.

My passion in life is to teach kids my basketball knowledge.

2012 Queensland Basketball League (QBL Australia) - Scoring Champion (23.9ppg)
2012 Queensland Basketball League (QBL Australia) - Gladstone Power MVP
2006 - Lead Iowa Wesleyan to NAIA National Tournament with 25-6 record.
2005 - Youngstown State University - Team selections for national Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (S.A.C.C.)
2005 - Youngstown State University - FourSquare Award (Given to top student athlete)
2002 - First-Team All State (IOWA)

Session plans vary depending on age, skill level and personal goals. I tailor each individual lesson to the person based on their level of play. The first session is typically a skill assessment and then we work together to formulate short and long term goals. Each session will build on the last and add new moves and skills.

Client Reviews

Zach trained my 12 year old boy/girl twins for approximately 3 months and in that time I noticed a huge improvement in their playing ability. He was really great at making the training fun for them and had the right amount of competition between them. They both really enjoyed their training sessions with Zach and I would definitely get him to train my children again.
Coach Silverman played a big role in my college career. He was the Assistant Coach at my Junior College and was instrumental in helping me reach the Division 1 level as well still being a big part of helping me stay confident through the rest of my career. While playing at North Iowa Area Community College there wouldn't be a day that would go by when Coach Silverman wasn't willing to get in the gym with me to get extra drills in or to work on my shot. Having a great knowledge on how to teach the fundamentals of basketball was a huge tool for me to use to better my game. One of the greatest attributes that Coach Silverman posses is how much he genuinely cares. Even 2 years after I was done playing for Coach Silverman he would still know what was going on in my basketball career, know if I am playing well or if I was in a slump. He stayed in constant contact with me throughout college congratulating me when I played well and would be there to let me know he believed in me when I needed some confidence. He is the only Coach I have ever had that after I finished playing for him cared like he did. The guy lives for hoops and any basketball program or organization would be lucky to have him. Any questions give me a call and I would be happy to answer them 701-610-0362.
