About

My name is Jordan Richardson and I am the director of VB Elite Basketball Academy. I run my program out of One Life Redmill. Consistency is vital for youth development. I have trained thousands of athletes of all skill levels for 8+ years between skills sessions and camps. I am dedicated to youth basketball development, it is truly a passion of mine.

However most importantly, it is about these kids developing into hard working individuals who are able to excel in a team structure. I keep myself available 7 days a week. There is not another coach/trainer in the area who puts in the hours I do. To see my work my instagram is VB_Elite_Basketball_Academy

Coach Jordan is a gem. It’s easy to find a trainer, but it’s NOT easy to find a trainer who genuinely cares about your kids’ development and enjoys helping them grow as both young individuals and athletes, on and off the court. He leads by example and always stresses the importance of confidence, self-motivation, healthy habits, and a strong work ethic. His training sessions are extremely intense, upbeat, and high energy. It’s rare to find an experienced coach who is able to smile and laugh with his players while still maintaining a high level of professionalism and attention to detail. We have been very fortunate to have Coach Jordan as both a team coach and private coach for our middle school and high school kids.

Jordan is an amazing trainer! Its unbelievable the set of skills he has challenged my daughter to acquire in such a short time. He is very encouraging and works with my daughter to harness her abilities. He is very professional and always on time. My daughters love for basketball has been taken up a notch and Jordan has iinspired her to work harder to be a great basketball player. She always looks forward to her next practice. I highly recommend Jordan as a personal trainer as I am an extremely satisfied parent.

I reached out to Coach Jordan at the beginning of my 14 yo sons basketball season to get him some one on one training. I had heard & read about all the talented athletes Jordan has worked with. So I admit in the beginning, I was a little unsure if he would be able to help someone like my boy. He had never played a team sport before in his life, so this was all new & unfamiliar to him. Most kids his age were already playing well in comparison. So my hope was that he would gain a better understanding of how the sport is played, as well as learn the basic fundamentals. But what he got was so much more than that. You see, my son has had an IEP since he was in Pre-K. Hes eager to learn & wants to do well, but he struggles to grasp certain concepts. Comprehension is not one of his strong points. Until meeting Jordan, what my son knew how to do was learned purely by imitation and watching his older brothers. His basketball IQ was low & his skill set was mediocre at best. Im just being honest. Upon meeting Jordan, his father & I have seen this kid change in so many ways. The most important being his confidence, on and off the court. Jordan was able to not only recognize his strengths and build on them, but also identify areas of weakness that they could work on more consistently. He tailored his teaching methods to meet my sons individual needs, while also keeping the learning aspect of it fun. His hands on approach paired with explaining each exercise & drill really set him apart in my opinion. He taught my son to step outside of his comfort zone, and really push himself which has helped his self esteem so much. Im thankful I reached out to Jordan. This man shows up for his kids with the same level of motivation & dedication each and every time. He always has a smile on his face, and brings this electric energy to the court that is unmatched. My husband agrees this is one of the best thing we ever couldve done. And my son hopes to work with him again in the future. Cant thank Jordan enough.

Frequently asked questions

I assess the student's all around skill and fitness as well as responsiveness to feedback. Once I have a baseline, I utilize fitness routines and skill based practice to improve the athletes abilities. My teachings and interactions are positive and encouraging, thus I have a good report with my clients and families.

I have a bachelors degree  as a Health Fitness Specialist. In addition I have a personal training and cpr certification! 

I started as a Junior varsity assistant basketball coach for my old high school. I fell in love with the all around dynamic of the experience and wanted to help more athletes 

I have worked with students of all skills levels from young beginner through college
