Basketball has brought me so many of the qualities that make me the person I am today. I love the process and strive of the game and that has not changed now as a coach.

Hello, my name is Brian J. Baker, but I prefer to be called Coach Bake. With over 20 years of experience as both a player and a coach, basketball has been a lifelong passion of mine. I firmly believe that every player has talent—it just takes the right coach to help bring it to the surface. I strive to be that person. I have worked with and helped develop boys and girls between the ages of 8 and 18, focusing not just on basketball skills but also on life lessons and the importance of being a student-athlete. My coaching and training style is firm yet supportive, ensuring that every player grows both on and off the court. If I’m given the time and respect, I promise results that you’ll be proud of. Let’s put in the work and take your game to the next level!

"I had the opportunity to work with Coach Bake during the summer of 2019, and the impact he had on my game was incredible. Before training with him, I was just an average player, but under his guidance, I developed into an overall MVP-caliber athlete. Over the next few seasons, I averaged 15 points and 12 rebounds per game. I also had the privilege of playing on his AAU team, which went on to win the Big Shots National Championship. Coach Bake is truly dedicated to his craft and takes pride in developing his players. I highly recommend him to anyone serious about elevating their game.
