I played competitive basketball and now have three sons who love playing the game. Youth Hoops is by far the best instruction and training for boys or girls learning fundamentals and how to play the game THE right way. Coach is an outstanding teacher who players of all ages can relate to. My boys love him and always ask when the next training session is. I cannot recommend Youth Hoops enough.

Youth Hoops Basketball Camps are wonderful. Coach Berry and the staff truly care about helping kids improve their basketball technical skills. From summer camps, to weekend classes, and even the intense week-long boot camp, my son has enjoyed every camp he has attended. Coach Berry combines basketball skills with inspirational lessons to help kids grow in both basketball and life. Youth Hoops encourages kids to excel, while providing a fun and motivating environment.

My son played on a number of AAU/travel basketball teams. None of them focused on individual skill development to provide young athletes with the right technique. Too many teams and coaches at the youth level focus on winning now. Youth Hoops focuses on correct shooting technique, defensive footwork, rebounding, and fundamental principles of good offense and defense. This is so much more important to player development than winning a game. Coach Berry has pushed my son with love. He was patient with him, challenged him, and taught him things about basketball I never could (I enjoyed learning too, especially Tom Izzo’s rebounding technique). Jacob is a sophomore playing on a top level club team with realistic chances for a college scholarship. He would not be on this stage without the coaching he received from John Berry. Oh, and practice will run over - because Coach wants to ensure your kids get the most out of every thoughtfully crafted session. But who doesn’t want a coach focused on the players and not on the clock.
