My Mission
Growing up, I remember not being able to have basketball training as a child and teenager, as it was not offered where I lived. The only way you could improve was by going to the parks and play pick up basketball or go to your local 24 Hour Fitness. At the gym, you had to wait to play with much older guys, and if your team lost, you wouldn't get back on the court for at least an hour. I am dedicating my life to helping our youth achieve their basketball dreams by training and improving in the sport they love, with Encore Basketball Training.
Giving Back
Our players aren't just members of a team, they are members of our community. This summer, we will work with local charities to bring basketball training to our youth less fortunate. Our goal is to provide basketball training to those that have a passion to improve their skills, but would normally not have the privilege to train.
