My son has attended Coach Berrys camps for 4 years and loves going. He is a phenomenal teacher, and someone who makes it educational and very enjoyable for the kids. As a parent and someone who’s been around basketball coaches for a long time, Coach Berry is easily one of the best I’ve seen at teaching fundamentals, spacing, teamwork and mental toughness for basketball and life while maintaining a very fun atmosphere. I highly recommend his camps to anyone who wants to learn basketball skills in a positive environment.

My experience with Youth Hoops has been great. Coach Berry’s instructional style is both positive and disciplined, teaching kids a love of the game as well as the importance of always striving for excellence. My son’s enjoyment of the game, his skill, and his effectiveness playing as a member of a team have all markedly increased under Coach Berry’s coaching.

We have known ‘Coach Berry’ for several years. He is such a positive and inspirational person. When our son decided to become very serious about basketball, we started having him work with John. We have seen amazing changes with our son’s fundamental skills and physical fitness. John not only teaches kids basketball, he is a positive role model. He is teaching them life skills that every kid needs. He teaches with high-energy, positive reinforcement, and hands-on guidance. It has been said that raising kids “takes a village“. We are so pleased to have John as a part of our village.
