Knowledge of the game, honest assessment of skill, and improvement of skills is what your child will experience if they get the chance to train and learn from Chris Corbett. Chris is one of the top player development coaches in Central Texas and believes workouts should be extremely productive but also fun.

Chris Corbett trains all 3 of my kids from age 12-16. His knowledge of the game at all levels help each one of my kids development in basketball. As a former collegiate player (at University of North Texas) & now a parent, I finally found a basketball trainer that I trust completely with my kids & their basketball development.

Review of Austin Youth Basketball Training by Tim Peters

“Chris made a world of difference for my son Trevor Peters in a very short time preparing him for varsity basketball at Lake Travis High School. It was amazing to see Trevor develop exponentially through Chris’ focus on both the physical and mental aspects of the game. That balanced approach made the difference. Further, Chris’ high integrity approach to life makes it easy to recommend him for helping any youth wanting to better their game…and perspective on life.”

Lake Travis Basketball Parent Reviews Basketball Training

My 17-year old son Henry started working with Chris in the spring of 2010, after completing his Freshman year of basketball at Lake Travis High School, and it has been an amazing experience for both of us. Henry has matured as a player and person through his workouts and conversations with Chris.

I still remember the first time we met when Chris started by putting Henry through an extensive warm-up session to make sure he didn’t injure any of his joints, especially his knees and ankles. Chris took the time to get to know Henry’s mindset for basketball, his work ethic, his personality, and his current skill level.

He chatted with Henry, asked lots of questions, and then he put together a comprehensive program to reinforce the good things Henry was doing and correcting flaws. Chris started adding skills and repertoire to Henry’s offensive abilities and has allowed Henry to improve his offensive game considerably.

Henry played on the varsity his sophomore year and is now getting ready for his Junior year. He has continued to work with Chris every week, learning new offensive moves to attack the basket, improve his shooting, and play better defense. Chris has continued to speak with Henry about playing the game with intensity, how to prepare for the next level (college), and how to treat coaches and teammates with respect.

Henry and Chris have a great relationship that includes just the right amount of encouragement, correction, and enthusiasm so that Henry continues to make tremendous progress in his basketball career.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Chris Corbett as a basketball teacher for anyone looking to improve their game.

Billy Sherakas Reviews Austin Basketball Training With Chris Corbett

Chris’s work outs are very productive in the way that he gets to know your game and out from that he has lots of different basketball drills to improve your game in the areas that you need. From offensive moves to defense and even little details, such as foot work and even tells you how to switch things up so you don’t become an easy player to read on the court.

From personal experience, I thought I knew quite a bit about Basketball, but Chris has played so many places and with different basketball players that he knows every aspect of the game and can help anyone improve in any way. Shooting,ball handling skill,defense and how to approach the game. Chris wont lie to you about your game either, he is there to get your game better and not there to just tell you “good job” even though he will when you are doing well. He is a very positive coach and great to work with, I enjoyed working with him this summer a lot.

My Private Basketball Training Session With Chris Corbett

admin — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 21:59:23 +0000

Chris and I met through a mutual friend and upon first talking to Chris on the phone, I remember him asking me a series of questions to try to get to know me and my background. He asked me what my aspirations were for the game of basketball and I told him that I was serious about playing college basketball and Chris graciously offered me to train with him for one session at Lifetime Fitness on a Sunday morning. So going into the training I was excited to have someone train me and get to know my game a little bit.

Chris had never seen me play before so the first thing we did was play one on one which I was glad he did that because I knew right away he knew what he was doing because I am a firm believer in how one on one against someone better than you is the best way to get better and to learn about someone’s game. So during the games of one on one and Chris was testing me in certain areas to see how my game was and after we played Chris automatically knew what type of player I was, what type of player I could become, and how I could make myself marketable and available for the college level. So then he put me through some series of some game like drills and we got up a lot of shots.

Chris is really big on footwork basketball lessons and making sure the toes are always squared up with the rim. The greatest aspect of Chris’ teaching is that he tries to maximize your strengths as a player and minimize your weaknesses. I learned a lot from the two and a half hours we spent in the gym together and I would highly recommend him to anyone interested in personal lessons. He is a great teacher and tells you what he thinks with complete honesty and I respect him greatly for the time he was willing to work with me.
