★★★★★Korbin SchellbachSuch a great experience! My son Korbin was one of the youngest in his division and playing against older kids only made him better and more confident.
★★★★★Tammy DarlingCoach G has an immediate and powerful presence and a dogged commitment to full player development. As a parent, I'm forever grateful for the mentorship and personal development on and off the court that the Gold Standard Team has gifted to our son since we landed in their orbit. I've also been on the front lines teaching high schoolers for 25 years. I SEE a lot. Most is ok. The WORK Coach G does facilitating a team ready to develop these young boys into better versions of themselves is UNMATCHED. I see it—100s of small moments all the time, I'm around Gold Standard opportunities— moments I know families HOPE their athletes can experience. This age group, 7th-9th grade, is something — witnessing the crew Coach G has gathered to take these kids on this hard journey, moving into their bodies and minds, often leaves me speechless, with just goosebumps. Each time those kids make contact with Coach G's crew—eye to eye —they are growing into better versions of themselves as players and realizing how to show up for others with all they have. The name of this program says all you need to jump in #morework!
★★★★★Jon PastorCan’t say enough about Gold Standard and the program Chris has put together. My son has gotten in early with Mini Hoops and absolutely loves it. Coach G caters to all ages and formulates groups that slowly build up the components of the sport and teamwork. Highly recommend signing your kids up and being part of a healthy and strong culture.
★★★★★Middlesex MagicChris Giordano and the entire team of trainers at Gold Standard have an amazing blend of knowledge, experience and ability to communicate it effectively to their players. The energy and passion they have for helping their players work hard and improve their game is unparalleled! If your son or daughter are interested in getting better and having fun, we highly recommend training with Gold Standard!
★★★★★Mike WoodEveryone will tell you that their kids have improved by training with Chris because it’s true However, that is not what makes Chris special. My son has gone to Chris for several years. His background as a school teacher, former player, and coach have given him the unique ability to connect with and motivate the kids so that they not only learn the concept or skill but understand why it is important. He knows that all kids learn differently and utilizes a variety of concepts based on how they learn. Most importantly he genuinely cares about the kids, builds confidence and instills a love of the game. My son plays many sports and has had a lot of coaches. In my sons words “Chis is the best coach I have ever had”. Highly recommend !!
