About
When players reach their potential, we get excited! We help student-athletes use basketball as a tool to obtain an education. Be their next level the varsity team or making a college roster, we're here to help!
An illusion is defined as a thing that is or is likely to be wrongly perceived or interpreted. Players that come through our program learn to create illusions on the basketball court. The defender thinks they're going left, but instead they go right. The defender thinks they're about to pull up, but they bang out a nasty crossover. It's hard to pin our players down.
Along with the belief that everything is possible when an athlete matches their hard work with an appropriate plan - we also believe that progress matters. That is why we obsess over student-athletes making improvements holistically. Skills, athleticism, and character development simultaneously. The player in the mirror is the only competition.
When a player begins to see their progress and they look around and smile because they surprised themselves with what they just did!

What types of students have you worked with?
We work with the youth basketball player, typically between the ages of 11 and 18, that is SERIOUS about improving their skills, athleticism, and developing the character traits and intangibles that coaches desire. Players that are younger than 11 would only be considered on a case by case basis. All in all, what we offer is only for student-athletes that are looking to make big time changes to make big time moves, such as making their varsity team ahead of schedule or playing at the college level.
