What Makes MOVE Different

  • Small Groups

    Maximum 16 players per session. Everyone gets coaching attention and court time.

  • Game-Ready Skills

    We skip drills that look good but don't translate. Everything we teach shows up in actual games.

  • Step-by-Step Progress

    Each 8-week term builds on the last. Parents see improvement in ball handling, shooting, and game awareness.

  • Coach with Championship Experience

    Troy played 320 NBL games and won four championships. He spots the small details that make the difference.
