Testimonials
“Alex is one of the most highly motivated and driven individuals I’ve coached. He has proven at every level that he is willing to go through the process that it takes to be successful. He has carried that same approach that he had as a player into the real world with his basketball trainings. He will truly take the time to get to know you as a player and person and figure out how he can help you to be successful.”

“I could not speak more highly of Alex Jacovides and his contribution to my son’s life. My son loves basketball, he was on a team but not getting all the skills and practice he needs so I looked for a trainer and found Alex. Alex’s approach has helped my son in basketball but even moreso in self esteem, he is a a great male role model, and mentor. Alex Jacovides talks to my son about everything while they are playing giving him the internal self talk that parents hope for. My son has found the confidence in who he is. Evident in a tense moment before a game, my son knew it was a tough team to beat… I asked him to tell me what Alex would say, it was such an amazing moment that turned the fear of the game into the confidence of a competitor. The lessons Alex teaches reach beyond basketball. My son made a Jr NBA team and his skills continue to soar on and off the court with Alex as his trainer.”

“Such a great program for my son over the summer! Alex is such a great coach! He’s kind and patient with the kids and is the perfect coach for my son’s 13 year old age group. He’s super talented and my son is so excited to come back for another week of camp! Would definitely recommend.”

“My 6th grade son has just started playing basketball for fun this year but expressed an interest in becoming more competitive and improving his playing abilities. He has been attending weekly training sessions with Coach Alex for nearly 2 months. My son’s abilities have dramatically improved and his confidence level in playing with higher level players has also significantly improved. The agility training and instruction is top-notch! We highly recommend Coach Alex!”

“As a college player, Alex was one of the best shooters in the country at any level. More importantly, he was hard-working, a great teammate and a joy to coach. Alex demonstrated what it meant to be a great leader to his peers, a role model, and a motivation to all of those he was around. I know he will be excellent in all of his future endeavors."
