Private Basketball Training Parents Review Austin Youth Basketball

I want to start by saying thank you. With the few lessons that Christopher has taken, it has impacted his game tremendously in a positive way. From being comfortable at the C/F position to wanting to play guard and move the ball around.

Last week he did a basketball camp at Akins and they were impressed with his footwork. Honestly, I have to thank you for that, because I really did not work with him on his footwork.

So, if you can send me some information on your basketball camps, I can run them past both my kids to see if this is something they want to do in August.

In the fall, he decided not to play football, because he loving basketball way too much. I told him, whenever, he is ready to play he can play. I’m the dad that won’t force my kids to do things their heart is not into. If their is something they really want to do, I’m there for them.

My wife also agreed with me, that you love the game and you are a great coach, so we thank you. Trust me, my son and I are very picky who coaches him.

Chris, Alfred had his first team practice yesterday and I just wanted to truly thank you again for the wonderful job that you have done with my son. It has been a while since I have seen him playing with kids his own age,and I was blown away by how much more advanced he is compared to the other kids. He has been working very hard on his game… and again we really appreciate all of your help. YOU ARE WORTH your price per session and more, and we are thrilled to have you helping us on Alfred’s basketball journey. So would the 20th at 9am work for you? Again thanks for your help and thanks for the passion that you bring whenever you’re working with my son. By the way he will be at the Drills to Skills camp and any other camp that you think would be a fit for him.

Allen Iverson Cross Over Dribble

Austin Youth Basketball caught this video of Ganon Baker demonstrating the Allen Iverson crossover dribble. Be careful not to carry on this move. Try to keep the ball below the shoulder. This can be a challenge when follwing the great direction of Ganon regarding getting low. Perfect this dribble at our guard summer camp or in a private training.

Watch Ganon Baker break down the Derrick Rose Crossover Dribble. Take special note of how this is used to attack the defender in a North South fashion rather than moving side to side. Austin Youth Basketball loves how Ganon Baker breaks down complex moves. Work on this move during the summer before breaking it out during a game.
