Powered by GoogleI felt called to share my testimonial about my experience with Encore Basketball League. Our son has been with Encore for a year now and is in the middle of his 4th season. From the beginning we knew this was going to be a solid league because of how organized the league felt and it really felt like a "legit league". Speaking from our first experience we were happy to see how Coach Sallie worked with the kids and we knew we found a "home" for our son who is 9yrs old. He is there for every single game and does "play-by-play" announcing for everyone to hear and I now know this also gives him a chance to see the kids in action. From here he sees what the kids need to work on and implements it into the following practice which is pretty dope. Last Fall Season '23 I wanted to try coaching for the first time and Coach Sallie was super supportive of it. I'm really enjoying this new experience and being able to see all of the kid's improve is so fulfilling. So I just wanted to take the time to thank Coach (and everyone involved) for all that you're doing for our children and community! I already see myself and family being with this league for a long time!
This is our first time and my kid loves it. The league is very well organized and coach Sallie trains with positive reinforcement.
I would highly recommend Mr. Sallie’s training for all levels. The two hour training session involved intense skills training, while keeping all kids engaged. As a coach for CYBL I would highly encourage your player to attend this skills training class. You will be impressed by the training and unique skill set Mr. Sallie has!
My son has been training with Encore Basketball Training over the last year and a half. Rob's expertise with the game is evident by his history playing from the Valley High days to JUCO to Memphis to the European league, but nothing prepared me for his natural gift for training and instructing kids of all age and skill level. Rob's connections in the sport have also enabled my son to get exposure with other coaches, which resulted in him being invited to attend an early college prep school and play varsity in the 10th grade. Rob not only teaches basketball skills, there is an emphasis on the mental aspects of the game as well as work ethic. As a family who is just beginning to navigate the world of college sports, Rob has also been an amazing resource in giving my son suggestions on what college coaches look for and how to make himself a stronger candidate for recruiting.
My son has been working on his game constantly. Roburt helped him take his game to the next level by focusing on the details. He helps the kids understand how to play basketball in rhythm. Whether you little one needs better footwork, shooting ability or to increase their overall basketball IQ Encore is the right place to go!
