"Coach Bobby is great. He suggested a few adjustments that have a big impact on my game. He also shared some really practical drills and techniques that I can practice on my own to improve my game. The facility is very nice as well. Definitely recommend."

COACH BOBBY IS THE MAN!!!! The first session of training my son was AWESOME! He gave him pointers on ball handling, shooting and how to play defense the right way. The very next day at his practice you could see a Huge Difference in my son. From his ball handling to his CONFIDENCE and all of this after one training session? Like Mcgarrett on Hawaii Five-O would say: "BOOK EM DANO"! LET'S GO!!!!"

Coach Bobby was great! We went hard for the first minute to the last. I have played and coached a lot myself, but we did some new drills, which was fun and challenging. Looking forward to more sessions.
