Shevon O. says, "I am extremely blessed that I was able to find Bradford! I'm a single mom of a 10 year old girl. I'm not athletic at all and her dad is disabled. I noticed she was struggling quite a bit on her 4th grade team and her team mates were getting pretty frustrated with her. It absolutely broke my heart! I found lessons.com through a quick Google search and Bradford sent me an email right away and scheduled a time to meet the very next day! I am not going to lie...I was skeptical because it just seemed to good to be true for the price and how upbeat and motivating he seemed. He has done an amazing job with my daughter in just 5 1.5 hour sessions! Her coach and other parents on her team are starting to comment about how much she has improved in that short amount of time. She still has a long ways to go, but it's utterly amazing to see her handle the ball with more confidence, work on her crossovers, make 10 layups in a row. This last week she beat out everyone on her team in a shooting competition during practice! Then she got her bully out in a dribbling contest. The pride and excitement on her face was priceless! Bradford's time has been worth every penny! Bradford is no joke! He works her hard, but he does it with positivity and compassion! She drips sweat with a smile! I have seen him work with high school and college students as well and they all respect him and value his time and instruction. He even came to a couple of her games on his own time so that he could get a clear picture of what he's working with. I could go on and on! I plan to continue her weekly lessons for a while. I'm so very thankful! " Read more

Your Basketball Training questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much does a personal basketball trainer cost?

The average cost of a personal basketball trainer ranges from $30 to $150 per hour for one-on-one sessions. The cost can be influenced by factors such as the player's level (beginner, intermediate, or advanced), the trainer's experience and expertise, and the location where the training takes place.

Additionally, small group sessions of 2 to 4 children can cost $30 to $50 per session on average, while large group training of 4+ kids can cost $20 to $40 per session on average

How do you train for basketball?

A well-rounded basketball training regimen should include skill-specific workouts, strength and conditioning exercises, and a structured training program. Skill development includes shooting workouts, ball handling drills, and training tailored to your position, whether you’re a guard or post player.

Strength and conditioning exercises such as aerobic training and strength training for primary muscle groups like hips, quads, and glutes are critical. A structured 6-week training program that emphasizes form, technique, and skill progression should improve your game.

How many hours do basketball players train a week?

Basketball players, especially those aiming to improve their skills, may train for around 10 to 15 hours per week, depending on the level of their game. The specific distribution of training hours across skill development, strength training, and other aspects can vary based on individual needs and goals.

However, much of that training time does not require an instructor. Shooting hoops, working out at the gym, and playing pick-up games all count toward the total training time.

Is strength training important for basketball?

Yes, strengthtraining is essential for basketball players as it aids in the development of speed strength, absolute strength, and core strength. It boosts blast impulse, the ability to generate force rapidly, crucial for activities like jumping for rebounds and swift changes in direction.

Additionally, strength training enhances power output and agility, allowing players to respond quickly to on-court situations and maintain an edge over their opponents.

What questions should I ask a basketball trainer?

Ask these questions when picking a basketball trainer to help you meet your goals:

  • What is your background and experience in basketball training?
  • Have you worked with players at my skill level or position before?
  • What is your coaching philosophy and training style?
  • How do you tailor your training programs to individual needs?
  • What specific skills and aspects of the game do you emphasize in your training sessions?
  • How do you address both physical and mental aspects of player development?
  • Do you conduct initial assessments to identify strengths and areas for improvement?
  • How do you track and measure a player's progress over time?
  • How do you incorporate injury prevention strategies into your training programs?
  • What steps do you take to ensure the well-being of your athletes?
  • What is your availability for training sessions?
  • How do you handle scheduling and potential conflicts?
  • How do you communicate with players and provide feedback?
  • What role do players and parents/guardians play in the feedback process?
  • What are your fees and payment structure?
  • Are there any long-term commitments or package deals available?
  • Can you provide references from previous clients or players you have trained?
  • How do you work with players to set and achieve realistic goals?
  • What expectations do you have for players in terms of commitment and effort?

How do I choose a basketball trainer?

When selecting a basketball trainer, consider the following tips:

  • Look for a trainer with a solid background and experience in basketball training. Ideally, they should have worked with players at your skill level or in your position.
  • Understand the trainer's coaching philosophy and training style. Ensure it aligns with your goals and preferences for skill development.

  • Ensure the trainer incorporates injury prevention strategies into their programs.
  • Consider the trainer's communication style, which is vital for a successful training relationship.

  • Understand the trainer's fees and payment structure.

Wendee W.
Bradford's work with my son over the summer has been nothing less than extraordinary. My son listens to him, is motivated by him and looks forward to his lessons. Not only does he teach basketball skills, Bradford figured out what my son needed mentally-he talks through how to recognize what he's feeling as he does his drills, and advises how to handle the ups and downs and overcome insecurities. He's exactly what my son needs in a coach- we really couldn't be happier with the results he's been getting and look forward to seeing how far he can go with Bradford's help. Highly recommend!
