Mental Skills & Performance Podcast

Coaches Jerry Powell, Pat Quinn, Lewis Clinch, and Ed Lovelace provide a highly effective basketball developmental workload for youth boys and girls of all skill levels. To compliment the superior hands-on coaching, we have implemented the most effective and state of the art technology platforms known within the sports training industry. The technology in our facility allows our team of coaches to analyze and track player data in real-time for instant feedback and development. Athletes mental and physical skills will be tested, tracked, and improved upon during this developmental clinic. Our proprietary sports curriculums are fine-tuned to accommodate the goals of each athlete and build confidence in their abilities, while cementing their love for the game. Athletes will gain insight into what it takes to be the best athlete they can be. Each athlete will receive an S24 Dri-Fit T-Shirt and Shorts.
