About Jamal

With experience training players at IMG Academy and State College of Florida, I specialize in personalized basketball instruction focused on skill development, confidence, and basketball IQ. I work with athletes of all ages and levels, creating structured, high energy sessions that translate to real game improvement on and off the court.

What students say...

"Jamal has been working with my son since August, and from the very beginning it was clear how knowledgeable, intentional, and serious he is about the game of basketball. His attention to detail and commitment to fundamentals immediately stood out. In just six months of training, my son Eirasen has shown tremendous growthโ€”not only in his fundamental skills, but also in his overall understanding of the game. Jamal has played a major role in that development and will always be a staple in my sonโ€™s basketball journey. What truly sets Jamal apart is his care, compassion, and genuine love for the players he trains. He is deeply invested in each childโ€™s growth and treats their development with the same level of commitment as any parent would. If youโ€™re looking for a trainer who truly cares and delivers results, NO FEA4 Basketball Academy is the place to be.

About Kendall

Basketball was my first love. I started playing organized basketball when I was 10years old and played all 4 years in college. Basketball has always been more than a game to me, I was blessed with amazing coaches and teammates that taught me more about life and bonds that will last a lifetime. Donโ€™t get me wrong the game taught me a lot too, and those skills are used to get through lifeโ€™s ups and downs. I donโ€™t know where Iโ€™d be without it and I would love to share my passion for the game along with life skills to encourage youth the way I was. It made a difference!
