is truly someone who embodies the essence of hard work and dedication. 🏀💪 It's the unseen hours and endless effort he puts into perfecting his skills on the court.

I had the pleasure of getting some work in with him recently, and help him get ready for his college season ahead. ✨🌟

Returning ready to go for a big season
It's the constant grind and determination that separates and the good from the great. 🙌🔥

Wishing you the best of luck, Jake! Keep shining on and off the court! 🏆💯

⭐️It’s been testing for everyone!

At some point in time and as hard as this s**t has been we have to keep pushing through.

⭐️These could possibly be my favourite shoe of all time.💦

The Air Jordan 11 Low UNC was originally released back in 2001 dubbed, “Columbia Blue.”

Paying homage to Michael Jordan’s alma mater, this Air Jordan 11 Low comes dressed in a University Blue and White color scheme.

🔥Did you know that when Nike launched the Air Jordan sneaker in 1984 they placed a sales goal of $3 million over the first three years.

Jordan shattered that goal and the shoe went on to make $126 million in the first year alone.!

⭐️KEEP MOVING

It’s cool to think that I’ve played a small role in keeping players moving over a very tough period of time. Hundreds of 📲online 15- 30 min workouts have been SMASHED over this crazy time!

Each day I look over all of my players workouts, videos and texts about certain drills and techniques but the most impressive thing I see is the positive habits that these players are creating for themselves.

You have to be planned, organised and motivated within yourself just to get started! Creating these habits are going to benefit players for the rest of their lives both on and off the court. In order to make a change or improve we have to have a starting point!

Don’t worry about fast tracking or how tough some sessions are or how many shots you miss... you just have to start!

I’m not quite sure what the smell actually is but the feel of these CANDY PAINT HARDEN 4s are amazing!

⭐️ So what exactly do I have to do to make the NBA?

It’s actually a very interesting question and I’m not sure there is a black and white answer especially at this current stage in Australia.
As identified in the chart image there is a number of great programs that are available from Primary school tournaments to Australian Championships right through to World Championships and beyond❗️But what happens if I don’t make any of these teams are my dreams over??

Absolutely not... you are totally in control of your own destiny it will be the passion, determination, perseverance and work ethic that is most important when chasing your dreams.

Let’s take our best Australian basketballer in Big man Andrew Bogut for example, as a young 15 year old was cut from the Vic junior state rep team but worked hard to earn his spot on the AIS. He later joined the U19 Australian National team where he was named MVP of the 2003 Junior World Champs!

Leaving Australia Andrew then attended the University of Utah in the NCAA only to be drafted #1 overall in the 2005 NBA DRAFT! ✅


Everyone’s journey is a little different but let’s not waste time. Grab a ball and deepen your ❤️ for the 🏀.

⭐️ In 1967, slum dunks were declared illegal, only to be legalized nine years later.

Another fun fact is that it was previously known as the dunk shot until an American commentator coined the name slam dunk in the 70s.

🏀 Both our 60 and 72 inch inground system are fully dunkable and height adjustable. The NBA style snap back spring rings and ole padding are added features for that 360 Windmill Dunk.

⭐️ As I walked past the shoe closet today the Kyrie low 2 Sunsets 🌅 smacked me right in my eye❗️

The work that goes into these colour ways is really impressive.
These Kyrie low 2 “Sunsets” are the business, the mesh upper fades from yellow to orange with the signature “TN Air” badge that is modified to read “KY AIR” for our man Kyrie Irving!
The look is finished off with a white Zoom Air - cushioned midsole and black outsole and a bright Nike swoosh to establish the perfect Sunset visual..❤️🧡💛

Now as much as I’m a big fan of Kyrie’s shoe game I’m even more impressed with his basketball handles and creativity.....this cat is on another level! Kyrie can do things with a basketball that are just unbelievable, the hours this guy would have put into his craft would be off the chart.

So much looking forward to the return of both the NBA and competitive basketball.

🔆Whilst we wait you can enjoy plenty of challenging ball handling drills online workouts. 👉🏻Remember we still have our 7 day free trial running so hit the link in the bio and get started this weekend.❗️

Enjoy👊🏼

⭐️I received a message through the week from one of my older ballers. He raised a very interesting point that got me thinking....

Long story short he was running out of time with one of his weekly skills sessions, but the interesting thing was that he left all of the moving and more challenging ball handling drills.

The next day I asked him why he chose to skip that group of exercise and his response caught me off guard. He said ‘In my team Coach doesn’t want me dribbling the ball anyways so I don’t really need to work on that’ 😳

Basketball has undergone a massive change over the past 10 years! We see traditional positions changing in favour of versatile players that can play different roles. This ‘positionless basketball’ is now being played in the NCAA and NBA so why would we, in youth basketball, not want to teach our young players the same concepts???

👉🏻 you will be required to work on your weakness and drift outside your comfort zone, we will support you, be patient with you and build confidence no matter what you size or position❗️

Keep smashing those workouts.🤜🏻🤛🏻

⭐️We have to make every day count with all that’s going on right now!

I honestly still feel very uncertain about the “full return” of basketball in the near future. I speak with many players everyday and I’m a little concerned that we are all just expecting basketball to start up again any day now just as we left it all those weeks ago.

What if it’s another 3 months away?? 😩

Are we working out at home and preparing our bodies and smashing our fundamentals?
I really hate looking at this in such a negative manner but we need to look at the worst case time scenario when mapping out our workouts and more importantly our improvement.

At a minimum we really need to be completing 1-2 skills/ fundamental sessions a week along with a solid Cardio Basketball session workout. We need to keep our bodies active and ready over this time.👊🏻

Stay Fit.👊🏻

⭐️Not sure about anybody else but MJ has me counting down the days every week until I can watch another episode of Michael Jordan’s “The Last Dance”.

Every Monday I make sure I lace myself up a fresh pair of Js before I allow the worlds greatest athlete and basketballer to do his thing!

I find myself absolutely encapsulated with this human! He is the ultimate winner, competitor and entertainer...he in my opinion is the greatest athlete any sport has seen.🔥

Last Monday was time to dust off the Jordan 1s. 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶

👉🏻The Air Jordan 1 low debuted in 1985 alongside the Air Jordan 1 High as the first low-top signature sneaker developed by Nike for Michael Jordan.
They encorporated the Nike Swoosh and the Jordan Wings logo and featured ‘Nike Air’ and are one of my favourites.

⭐️ Please join me Monday in your cleanest Js for the final 2 episodes!😳

⭐️ It’s really important as a coach to think about your communication. You have to be very careful about what you say and more importantly how you deliver it.

I remember clearly as a young baller at a state tryout an assistant coach telling me to get rid of “all those no look passes and that between the legs, around the back dribble rubbish” or I won’t make the team”
Really.... you want me to get rid of something that’s unique to me??

I actually didn’t even know I did it half time but I know it was the creativity that I loved about basketball, it was something that was unique to me and court vision and ball control was actually my strength!

How can I get rid of something that I didn’t know I was doing?!!

Creativity is you and the way you choose to play the game is something that I will never ask you to change. Work as hard as you can on the fundamentals but also allow this beautiful game to reflect your style, your personality and your passion!

Hit me up 📲today and you will notice an over abundance of round the back and through the legs drills where you can be as creative as you like!

Enjoy👊🏻
