Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: BASKETBALL MADE SIMPLE  I teach what most team coaches don't have time to work on with their players. I break down every move or skill into simple, easy-to-learn drills that allows players to make drastic improvements in their game (form, balance, quickness, shooting accuracy, creating space and separation, defensive prowess, playing against bigger or quicker players, and scoring from anywhere on the floor efficiently) without having to think too much.... I take what a player already does well and show them how to execute that skill more effectively and efficiently. Overall confidence and playing intensity will improve as they begin to master the basics of this simple game. In communicating with players, I share with players the invaluable information that eliminated lot of my stress and insecurity on the court; information that I wished someone would have shared with me at a younger age... My focus is on the mental aspect of approaching the game from every angle, on and off the court.

We've really enjoyed Scott coaching our two sons. He's positive with the kids and my boys have loved working with him. He's also direct in his coaching and teaches great fundamentals. I've watched my two sons grow in their game abilities after each session. I'd encourage you to reach out to him.

This guy right here is the best money can buy! He is beyond experienced at this sport of what most kids love as basketball. He breaks down every bounce, cuts and slashes. The counter moves are so smooth. That hop is dangerous! Definitely will continue to use Coach Porter. My son told me this is the trainer I want! Because he breaks down every move to where a 5 year old could take it after about 5-6 times an go to work! One simple correction to my sons shot! So small you’d barely notice an boom off the dribble we working! The wrist! Thanks Coach Porter!

    I work with players as young as 9 years old up to college-level athletes
