About the Coach
My name is Brandon Busch, and I've spent more than 15 years coaching boys and girls basketball at a variety of age levels. In addition, I have spent the past three summers coaching for PGC Basketball, one of the most respected basketball training organizations in the country, helping athletes develop not only their skills, but also their confidence, leadership, and understanding of the game. My goal is simple: help athletes become better players, better teammates, and better competitors.

Important Notes

Session levels are intended as general guidelines only. Some younger athletes may be ready for Session 2, while some older athletes may benefit more from Session 1. Placement is ultimately at the coach's discretion to ensure each athlete is training in the environment that best fits their current skill level.

These sessions are for athletes who genuinely want to improve. This is not babysitting, free play, or unstructured gym time.
Players should arrive ready to work, compete, listen, learn, and help make those around them better.

We will absolutely have fun, but our focus will be on effort, improvement, teamwork, and building habits that translate to success on the court. Repeated misbehavior, poor effort, or disrespect toward coaches and fellow athletes will not be tolerated.

Whether you're preparing for travel basketball, school basketball, or simply looking to become a more skilled and confident player, these sessions will provide quality instruction in a positive and challenging environment.

📩 Please message me directly if you have any questions.

🏀 Be sure to tell your friends and teammates—athletes from any school are welcome!

This isn’t me hating on small town success - far from it. It’s making the point that you should push yourself beyond that, dare to fail, and then watch yourself succeed even more!

How staying where you're the best can limit who you could become.

The best 43 seconds you will spend today. Trust me. Share with others and spread the positive message.

How encouragement of a teammate can change everything in a moment.

Those of you that know me -- know my views on this. And if you've sat beside me on a sideline you know I don't say a word. I just support and cheer.

Just yesterday I read about yet another issue of adults acting out at a local athletic event. At any rate, here are my thoughts.

Please share this with anyone you know involved in youth sports. Especially coaches - the article includes a link to guidelines I've used over my many years of coaching. Let's do better everyone!

The fine line between parent support and sabotage in youth sports.
