Plus, countless youth and aspiring players have learned important new skills.”

Are You Struggling With....

Inconsistent Shooting:

Do you feel like your shot is hit or miss, even during practice?

Many players struggle with consistency, leaving them frustrated and lacking confidence on the court. My training targets the root causes of inconsistency, whether it’s in your mechanics, mindset, or practice habits, ensuring that every shot is reliable and repeatable.”

Lack of Confidence Under Pressure:

Do you find it hard to trust your shot in crucial moments?

It’s common for players to lose confidence when the stakes are high. I focus on developing true confidence by helping you understand the work and preparation that goes into building a great shot. With a stronger mental approach, you’ll be able to trust your shot when it matters most.”

Plateauing Progress:

Are you feeling stuck, like you’re not improving no matter how much you practice?

Plateaus are frustrating and can be difficult to overcome without the right guidance. I use a data-informed approach to identify the habits that are holding you back and introduce targeted drills that turn weaknesses into strengths, breaking through your plateau and taking your game to the next level.

Confusion About What to Practice:

Do you often wonder if you’re practicing the right way or focusing on the right things?

It’s easy to feel lost or overwhelmed by the sheer amount of advice out there. I’ll help you create a shooting schedule tailored to your specific needs, showing you how to practice effectively at different times of the year, so you can be confident that every minute you spend on the court is making you better.”

Difficulty Analyzing Your Own Game:

Are you unsure how to assess your own shooting and make adjustments?

Many players struggle to analyze their own form, leading to repeated mistakes. I teach you how to break down video of your own shooting, empowering you to become your own shooting coach.
