“During regular NJB seasons, I heard the same complaint from coaches and parents: there is not enough time to work on fundamentals without the pressure of games. The Playmaker’s detailed and easy to follow program allowed us to rollout a plan efficiently and with minimal effort.  Coaches were able to focus on coaching and not lesson plan development. Players enjoyed the challenge of the focus sessions as well as the 3v3 games that are fundamental to getting the players more touches and freedom moving around the court. Since running our first session, I have had players, parents and coaches request that we run the program again. 

playmakers is a well thought-out and planned program that allows players the opportunity to learn basketball fundamentals in an environment free of pressure.”
