About

Hi everyone,

My name is Chris and I am a physical education teacher at a local public school in the capital region. Previously, I have also worked as a health education teacher and athletic director at schools in the capital region as well. I have coached boys basketball at the high school level (varsity) for the last four years. I also coach boys varsity soccer and boys modified track and field in addition to coaching basketball. Growing up, I played basketball, baseball, and soccer. I was fortunate to be able to play basketball and baseball at the collegiate level as well.

I love the game of basketball and am happy to provide your child with affordable basketball training. My lessons would focus on basic skill development initially and would progress to advanced skill development over time. I am happy to share my knowledge of the game with your child and help him/her grow as a basketball player and as a person.

I love seeing student athletes improve their skills and grow over time. Even the smallest improvements can be the most rewarding!

Update as of December 2023:

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in my basketball training services. I have not been on this account in a while and have been recovering from ACL reconstruction surgery. As a physical education teacher and high school basketball, soccer, and track coach, the school year becomes quite busy, making it difficult to offer training during the school year. It is my goal to offer basketball training services during the upcoming summer months to those who are interested. Please feel free to contact me at anytime moving forward. I hope to see you this summer.

Chris
