"Coach Casey is a great coach to my daughter. My daughter who is 11 thought she hated basketball until she met him. After one session she asked if he can be her coach and she can join his team. His love and passion for the game truly show in his training and techniques. Casey is knowledgeable and friendly. He motivates my daughter. Make sure she has the correct stand/position, I would highly recommend him to my family and friends.

With over 16 years dedicated to basketball, I foster player growth. I refine skills, enhance strategic thinking, and cultivate a love for the game in each athlete I guide. My approach blends focused training with an enjoyable learning atmosphere. As a collegiate student athlete I understand the hard-work and dedication that it takes to reach our athletic goals.

With experience in coaching, play-making, and being a main starter in high school varsity basketball, I've learned quite a bit about this sport. It's not just about what you do on the court, but off the court as well. Compatibility with others, and learning to work with those who have work to do is critical. Elite players work harder off the court than on the court.

I bring a championship mindset and years of on-court experience to every athlete I train. As a former collegiate standout and professional player, I was a 2x PCAC Player of the Year, 2x All-State performer, and helped lead Southwestern College to a state-best 50–6 record before earning a scholarship to Cal Baptist. There, I helped capture a PacWest Championship and an NCAA Tournament berth. After competing professionally in Colombia and earning my Master’s in Physical Education from Azusa Pacific, I began my coaching career at Southwestern College. During my time there, I helped lead the program to three PCAC Championships, was named PCAC Coach of the Year in 2020, and coached 40 All-Conference players, with over 30 earning scholarships to four-year universities—including multiple Division I and professional athletes. Now, I use that same drive and attention to detail to help players and clients elevate their game, build confidence, and unlock their full potential—both physically and mentally.

"Coach Anthony has taken my son’s game to another level this summer. His workouts are purposeful, detailed, and tailored to what my son needs. Anthony brings real coaching experience and it shows.

With over 20 years of soccer experience and more than 8 years of competitive basketball, including collegiate-level play, I bring a deep understanding of both games to every coaching role. I’ve spent the past two years coaching command level United States Navy teams, sharpening my ability to lead, motivate, and develop athletes in high-performance environments. Additionally, I have a year of experience coaching children ages 1 to 9, focusing on foundational skills, coordination, and fostering a love for sport at an early age. My passion lies in building strong athletes through discipline, teamwork, and a positive, growth-oriented mindset
