Coach Matthew works with my 9 year old and 5 year old who are far from athletic. He is patient and makes basketball a highlight for my kids. In addition to the kids getting a good workout, he has made the classes fun and skill building. I strongly recommend coach Matthew for all ages and skill levels.
