About

I am able to recognize, diagnose and fix basketball shooting flaws that many other coaches miss or do not correct properly. I love working with players who want to learn and get better and are willing to adjust how they shoot in order to be consistently good. It is very satisfying to see players I have trained in camps or private sessions perform better than they ever have before.

Coach T was so natural. He was so easy to follow and it felt like we had been dealing with him for ever even though this was our first session. Believe it or not my grandson was able to apply suggestions given at his most recent game. Grandson extremely happy and felt that session with Coach T was worth it. He understands that he has to stick with it and use this coach's suggestions. Athlete still needs work but the coach always asked how he felt about suggestions and never made it sound like why oh why do you play so bad (smile).

My daughter has only had one lesson so far with Coach Topp, but after only 3-5min working with him she was already showing improvement. She is very excited to continue working with him and excited about her continued progress!

Coach Topp was very detailed and his knowledge of the game was exceptional. He immediately diagnosed issues with my sons shot mechanics and put him on the right path. We will definitely return to him for more training. Thanks Coach Jeff P.

Bob Topp with Shot Doctor Basketball is a skillful and highly effective shooting coach. Bob has worked with my daughter for a number of years and helped her become a technically sound shooter and highly effective and confident basketball player. Bob has a high degree of knowledge about the technical aspects of shooting and effective movement on the court so that a player is able to confidently position themselves for optimal scoring opportunities. He takes a kind and methodical approach to the teaching process and builds a players skills from the basic to the highly technical. We have been very pleased with Bob. My daughter is a junior in high school and has played on the varsity team since her freshman year. There are now a number of college coaches and scouts that have contacted my daughter as a prospective college player.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
$50 per hour for one player. $30 per hour per player for a two-person session.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
After a brief ball-handling warmup, I put the shooter about 8 or 9 feet from the hoop to shoot. I can determine the flaws in shooting form within 5 to 10 shots taken.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a B.A. and an M.A. in Physical Education. I have coached basketball teams in middle school, high school, community college and semi-pro. I teach elementary Physical Education, so my experience spans a wide age range.
