TSwizzle214Extremely helpfulThis has been instrumental in coaching my youth’s hoops. The team has since turned into a collection of absolute studs that hit 600 foot home runs and the other team’s goalies can’t do anything to stop them. 10/10 #Hoops

Mdoyle100Great InformationThis podcast gives a wealth of information on coaching youth basketball, especially for first timers like myself. They take a little too long at the beginning of each show to dive into the material. And I wish their shows were longer. But overall, it’s been very helpful to me.
