About
My name is Sheldon West I've trained and coached basketball for 11 years. I specialize in skill development,teaching the fundamentals, and teaching kids to play the right way. My prices vary depending on age. Right now I'm available whatever time you need me. Looking forward to meeting and having fun with all of my students.
I enjoy the relationships I foster from training and coaching. I enjoy the amount of fun the kids have and their development is extremely important to me as well. Together we'll become better people, teammates, and players.
