Hey everyone, My peace and my time are the most valuable things I have right now. Basketball training is my passion, and I take it seriously. I've watched players who put in 2+ years with me transform their game completely. That's the standard I train to. It's time some of you match it. If your daughter is in one of my girls' groups, this isn't about you. You're good, stop reading. If you're the parent of one of my boys, read every word of this and pass it on to your athlete. This is not: 1. A babysitting clinic 2. A gym for recess 3. A place to goof off 4. A place to not take seriously Some groups are one bad week away from being cut completely. Starting today, if a player isn't working hard, isn't locked in, and isn't taking this seriously, they're gone. Just like a team cuts a player, I'm cutting players who waste my time. I will train fewer kids who are serious over a full gym of kids who aren't. Every time. The rule: 3 chances. That's it. The third time a player is clearly not trying, they're cut. No discussion, no fourth chance. Go find another trainer. Here's another change, effective immediately. If a player is goofing off mid-session and it's blatant, I'm pulling you out right then and there. You'll sit out the rest of that session, your parents get that session's money back, and when they pick you up, you're going to have to explain to them why you got pulled. Some of you are getting older now, and I have to start treating you like young adults. I have to treat you the way life is actually going to treat you. Training with me is a privilege. It's also an opportunity. And the moment you start goofing off mid-session, congratulations, you just lost that opportunity. When a player gets cut for good, there will be no explanation. I'll text the parent that they're cut, and that's it. If I like the parent, they might get an explanation. Most likely they won't. Parents know their kids. I shouldn't have to explain something you probably already know.
