Private Basketball Training & Coaches in Claremore, OK

Coach Joël Slagtand - Basketball Coach & Mentor I’ve been passionate about the game of basketball since 1995, when I first fell in love with the sport. That passion has grown into a lifelong commitment—not only to the game itself but to the powerful lessons it teaches on and off the court. With years of experience coaching in the Miami, Florida recreational league within the Jewish community, I’ve dedicated myself to developing players holistically. My coaching philosophy centers around mental performance, creating a championship mindset, and fostering personal growth. I believe in building strong character, encouraging a healthy lifestyle, and using basketball as a tool for life-long wellness and leadership. My mission is to inspire athletes to be their best—mentally, physically, and emotionally—while developing a genuine love for the game.

"The first lesson with Coach Joel was amazing.. He is very personable, understands the game and coached in a way that allowed my 9 year old to see immediate progress. Looking forward to the next lesson. Thank you!

Hi! My name is Brooklyn. I love the game of basketball, and I love teaching kids. I played basketball in elementary, middle school, high-school, and competitive AAU basketball. Unfortunately, two shoulder surgeries put my basketball playing to an end. I have an 8 year old daughter and have coached her basketball team the last 2 years. Watching these young girls really engage and learn the game of basketball, relit the fire in me to somehow get back in this game.

I have played and loved basketball since I was 6 years old. I played at an elite, private high school. I played for 4 years at division 3 Emmanuel College. I helped the team to two of their winningest seasons in program history. I have coached private lessons since I was in college to players of all ages. I was the head coach and program director of a high school basketball team in Louisville, KY for one season. I was an assistant coach for one season at the collegiate NAIA level. I have a passion for motivating players of all ages to play with confidence and develop a love for basketball. My experience allows me to conduct drills that will help players improve and be prepared for any level they are playing at.
