About

I’ve been teaching and coaching for 18 years & also a former collegiate athlete myself. I hold a bachelors degree in education with a minor in coaching and health. I have extensive experience with training and coaching kids on all levels of basketball, from the youth to pros. Premier Level Sports will not only focus on core basketball skills, discipline, & work ethic, but also teaching life lessons off the court.

Coach Wells helped my son get back in the game, after a long break from basketball during baseball and football seasons. Very knowledgeable and fun…all while challenging my son to be his best. Excellent coach!

My son has had 2 sessions with C. Wells and has improved his overall knowledge of post moves and is excited about conditioning. This is a plus. He taught him how to use jump rope and gave a jumping program to enhance footwork and conditioning. He is more excited about basketball and I feel his overall confidence and joy of the game will also be enhanced.

Today will be my son's second time practicing with the coach. He's excited to listen, learn and practice a correct shooting form that the coach has went over with him. My son has a better shooting average now using this technique. Great coach

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is so that I can give your kid attention and help them progress in basketball and build their skill set. It is a flat fee for 1 on 1 training and a lower fee for group training.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First, I like to figure out where the individual kid’s skill level is at and customize a beneficial workout to help them progress while giving them a great workout. We will start with the basics. I would like to watch game film of players if it is provided.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Currently, I am a PE teacher and I have 18 years of coaching experience with a competitive basketball team that is sponsored by Under Armor called the Wisconsin Playground Club that has produced countless D1 college athletes and Professional Basketball Players. I also have a college degree in Education and Minor in Health & Coaching.
