Best 6 coaches for Basketball lessons near Sandy Springs, GA

Early on basketball was something I loved when I found out that You have to dribble the ball and score It. Then I was introduced to Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant and my love for the game of basketball took off to another level when that’s all I wanted to do! I played middle school and high school for my school team as well as AAU during the summer time while attending school workouts. Entering my junior year I make the team but the doctor needs a physical so at that point I find out I have scoliosis and cannot play competitively how I’d liked to without pain in my back. So I dive into the analytics and processing the breakdown of the game for years until I moved to Atlanta. I’ve been coaching for the Atlanta Strikers for 3 years coaching from ages 11-17. We have traveled out of state to compete in tournaments. Won nationals in Tennessee for 7th grade, won nationals in Virginia Beach for 8th grade, and competed in circuit-level play for 9th grade and varsity. My love for teaching the game the right way runs deep because I idolized Hall of Fame players growing up and want the game to continue to impact lives the way It did mine.
