Bio: My name is Bryant Disla, and I am the Founder and Head Coach of Youth Hoops 305. I’ve been an “everyday hooper” my entire life—playing the game at multiple levels, including during my service in the U.S. Army and overseas in Germany. Basketball has always been more than a sport to me; it’s been a source of discipline, purpose, and opportunity. Today, I’m committed to using that passion to shape the next generation of athletes. Before starting Youth Hoops 305, I became a licensed coach with USA Basketball and began donating my time to local children and nonprofit organizations such as One More Child. Giving back to under-resourced youth is at the core of my mission and continues to drive the work I do every day. I created Youth Hoops 305 with one goal: to show kids what basketball can do for them. I strive to build a culture that is physically demanding, mentally tough, and rooted in the love of the game. My goal is to provide a training experience unlike any other—one that focuses on real skill development, strong fundamentals, and personal growth both on and off the court. I believe in the transformative power of sports. Basketball can build confidence, self-esteem, teamwork, leadership, and resilience—qualities that go far beyond the hardwood. With my deep understanding of the game and my commitment to developing young athletes, I aim to help every player tap into their maximum potential. Whether they dream of playing in school, competing at higher levels, or making it all the way to the pros, I’m here to guide them every step of the way. I’m proud of the community and culture we’ve built, and I look forward to welcoming your child into the Youth Hoops 305 family—where we work hard, grow together, and discover just how far the game of basketball can take us. dedicated to honing basketball skills, I offer personalized coaching to elevate your game. My experience fosters both fundamental mastery and strategic thinking, helping players achieve their full potential. Let's build a winning mindset together, with passion and precision.
