The basics come first.
Kia ora, I’m Troy McLean.
I coach the way I want someone to coach my own kids. I know when to push and when to hold back.
I’ve played over 300 NBL games, won four championships with the Wellington Saints, and represented New Zealand as a Tall Black. But none of that matters if I can’t teach your child the basics.
Come and see for yourself.
