Do you want your son/daughter to improve in basketball? Do you want your son/daughter to make an AAU team or High School team? If the answer is "YES!" then ElitePro personal workouts are for your child.

Kevin's Philosophy:

We live in a very competitive world where to be either good or great at something, we have to work at it. All goal-minded people, be they corporate workers or basketball players, have to sacrifice something to be successful. The belief I lived by for the 10 years of my professional basketball career is simple: "If you fail to prepare, prepare to fail." I can truthfully tell you that the reasons one player becomes great and another remains average or below average is not because of genetics or natural ability; it is because of two things: knowledge and confidence.

To be successful basketball player, your child needs to be taught by someone who is professionally knowledgeable about basketball. At DREAMFIELD, your child will work with a highly skilled trainer who has played at the Division I and European professional levels. I understand what it takes to propel your son/daughter to new levels or improve their skills in the game of basketball. I have competed at the NBA level, European level and even showcased my skills in Nike One on One Battlegrounds, which compiles some of the best players around the country. Throughout my career I played high level competition. Therefore, my basketball skills had to be at an elite level in order to compete. Now, I can pass my experience and knowledge on to your child, which will improve your son/daughter's skill level.

The second way to help your son/daughter become a successful player is to develop his/her confidence. How do you achieve confidence in basketball?

The answer is simple: repetition in any given skill in basketball. With ElitePro Basketball, your son/daughter will develop that confidence through my professional workouts. The atmosphere will always be positive, as I believe that young adults playing any competitive sport need to be encouraged, not discouraged.

Skills to be taught:

Ball handling

Shooting

Basketball Agility

Defense

Footwork

Offensive moves

Evaluation:

In addition to the teaching of the basketball skills, I will conduct evaluation sessions for the first two to four training sessions to discuss the fundamental strengths and weaknesses of the player. Once a proper skill evaluation is achieved, I will begin to structure training sessions around the player's current skill level and abilities. Since each student's skill level is different, the rate and level at which we begin our training will vary. Our main goal is to first create a solid fundamental structure. That way, we have a great base on which we can build and develop a better basketball player.
