I do an assessment to see where they are and to find out what they're strengths and weaknesses. From there I make a spreadsheet of everything. Then we work on all of it until their weaknesses are strengths and their strengths become stronger.

I've been playing basketball for basically all my life.I played basketball for Beach High, coached basketball for national gaurd explorers post 62 as an assistant coach for 4 years, I coached basketball for Douglas Park for 2 years, I coached for MDI (Motivation, Discipline, Integrity) for 2 years, I coached for Richmond Perrine Optomis for 4 years,
