Nick has been coaching our son for over a year. We cannot recommend him more!!! Our son went from being an ok basketball player to a starter on his school team:-) Many games he is the top scorer. If you are looking to a top basketball coach you cannot go wrong with Nick. He coaches many of my son’s friends as well and they have all improved so much!!! Thank you Nick:-)

I had the pleasure of enrolling my two boys in private basketball lessons with Nicholas. His coaching style is not only effective but also engaging for kids. He creates a positive and encouraging environment, fostering both skill development and a love for the game. My kids have shown significant improvement, and I highly recommend Coach Nicholas for anyone seeking quality basketball coaching for kids.

My two sons trained with Nick for a few summers. Nick helped my older son make his high school team and my younger one make his travel team. My boys enjoyed the training. Their shooting and ball handling improved greatly. They loved one on ones against Nick to finish the lessons. I highly recommend hiring Nick to train your children.
