- Client testimonials
“Wayne has a gift in understanding how to connect with kids and instead of just telling our daughter what to do, he gets her to actively problem solve to help develop her basketball IQ, whilst having a lot of fun. He is also fantastic with the one percenters you need to take your basketball to the next level. Whether it's defensive stances, different dribbling techniques, shooting drills etc. Everything he has shown our daughter has been highly useful in developing her game.”
“Wayne has been a fantastic personal coach for Meg. His patience and commitment as well as his passion for basketball has had a significant impact on Meg's basketball skills. Combining 2 sessions a week - 1 for strength training in the gym and another session on the court with drills and shooting practice has seen phenomenal changes in Megs performance on the court as well as her endurance and agility in the games. Wayne has a very kind and honest style of coaching. He is both truthful of areas of weakness but encouraging of strengths. He has grown Meg into a confident player who strives for excellence and pushes her comfort zone. Wayne is a very rare personal trainer. Cannot recommend highly enough.”
“I've been incredibly lucky to have had Wayne as my coach and by my side for the past 10 years, and I can confidently say his dedication, loyalty, and genuine care are things that I do not take for granted. His unwavering commitment to both my development as a basketball player and as a person has been truly inspiring. Wayne is more than just a basketball coach, he is someone that I can look up to, rely on, and trust.”
