College-inspired skill development for beginner to advanced players. Every Sunday at CMS Spartan Arena in Connersville, Indiana.
CMS Middle School Basketball Coach · Certified Personal Trainer and Nutritionist
Passionate about developing complete, high-level basketball players on and off the court.
CORE Basketball Skills Training was founded in 2026 on four ideas that give the program its name — Commitment, Opportunity, Respect and Elevation. Sessions are built around game-speed repetition in a positive environment, so the work carries over to the games that matter.
Every session pulls from four areas, weighted to what the athlete in front of me needs most that day.
Shooting, ball-handling, passing and finishing.
Defensive footwork, rebounding and lateral quickness.
Reading defenders, spacing, situational awareness and decision-making.
Balance, footwork, coordination, agility and speed.
CORE opened its doors in 2026 and the first reviews are still coming in.
