Recently I had the opportunity to guest coach at The Cleveland Basketball School. I love watching Coach Paul and Head Trainer Robbie in action as they create a positive learning environment.
Things that The Cleveland Basketball School does well that makes them a great program are:
- Every drill is purposeful and practical. Ever drill they do I can see basketball players actual use in a game.
- Drills are explained! So many programs just tell their athletes to "do this because I said so". Not CBS, every drill is broken down into the "why we want you to do it this way is because". This is such an important piece of athletics, making sure the athletes LEARN, not mindlessly have them do drills.
- Teamwork, sportsmanship, and fun are focused on from start to finish. These three attributes go great together and are the foundation of CBS. I've never seen as many young people clap and encourage each other as I have at CBS.

To guest coach at such a great program is truly an honor. I always look forward to spending time at CBS.
