Drive Sports Drive Sports – Basketball Private Training, AAU, Classes and Camps At Drive Sports, we believe in tailoring our training to each individual's needs and goals.

Welcome to Drive Sports, where we are dedicated to developing outstanding basketball skills and nurturing strong character. I'm Coach Begley, a former College Basketball Player and Coach with a wealth of experience in coaching and player development. In addition to coaching at the Division I and III College Basketball levels, I have worked with hundreds of players in private and small group settin

gs. With over 20 years of travel coaching and player development experience, and having led more than 100 weeks of summer camps, with 50+ weeks under my direct leadership, I bring a comprehensive understanding of what it takes to succeed in basketball. Our private training program is at the heart of what we offer. We provide a wide range of training strategies and techniques, both on and off the court, to ensure our athletes receive personalized guidance. As part of our commitment to their growth, all our private trained athletes gain complimentary access to our exclusive video and content library, empowering them to continue their skill reinforcement and maximize their individual progress. Our Drive Sports Travel Basketball Program embodies the core elements of a college basketball program, adapted to the appropriate level for each age group. We emphasize skill work, highly organized practices and communication, strength training, mental enhancement, and goal setting. Our holistic approach extends beyond the court, nurturing the overall development of our players. We equip them with the tools needed to succeed not only in basketball but also in life. Through our Drive Sports Summer Basketball Camps, athletes have the opportunity to refine their individual skills, including ball-handling, passing, shooting, footwork, and defense. Our camps also incorporate valuable life lessons through motivational stories, quotes, and anecdotes. We teach breathwork, focus exercises, emotional resilience strategies, and goal setting, ensuring our players grow as well-rounded individuals. The week culminates with a Championship Friday tournament and an awards ceremony, where we recognize the character and sportsmanship displayed by each player. With my extensive experience and the collective knowledge of the Drive Sports team, we are committed to unlocking the full potential of every athlete. Whether it's through private training, our travel basketball program, or our summer camps, we provide a nurturing environment for growth. Join us at Drive Sports as we combine expert basketball training with character development, helping players thrive both on and off the court.

Our 5th grade boys team have been working hard all winter competing in league play to prepare for our spring season. This is a special group of boys that have created a bond that goes far beyond the court. Great job with them Coach !

Yesterday, Coach Kieran (class of 2007) and Coach Ryan (class of 2025) played in the annual MSMC Blue Knights Alumni Basketball Game - but not before Ryan cashed in on a half court shot for a $100 gift card. Coach Kieran (that’s me) was 100% certain that he was going to hit this shot bc that’s the kind of magic that Ryan brings to the court - hence the video. Congrats to “my son” for this little post-career highlight!

We have a few spots open on some of our teams who will be participating in a fall league in Northern, NJ. Our tryouts will allow you to get a taste of our style and culture, which is vastly different than many other programs you can choose from. We aren’t for everyone, but we ARE for the athletes who approach the game with purpose, dedication and passion - characteristics that we evaluate and prioritize BEFORE talent and athleticism. You in?

speaking on the balance between practices and games. It’s becoming more and more evident that playing on multiple travel programs isn’t actually what is needed to develop your game. Stick to one program that fits your needs and spend the rest of the time finding a balance between working out ON YOUR OWN and playing pickup against players older, stronger and better than you.

💪🏽 🧠🏀
6 Key Elements Of Positive Body Language
[An excerpt from Session 20: Body Talk in our Rise & Drive Mindset Training Program]

🗣️
Some say body language is 80% of communication and I would tend to agree. Basketball coaches are constantly evaluating their players body language - especially when tired, challenged, frustrated or even just sitting on the bench during a game.

I myself have changed my sub into a game because the player I was going to sub in did not look engaged. Other times, when I have looked down the bench, a certain players’ enthusiasm and encouragement has been the deciding factor in them getting INTO a game. And that’s only how it affects others around you. Consider how undisciplined body language can lead to a higher frequency of undesirable outcomes.

Keep in mind that before you can expect to adjust or change your own behavior, you must first become aware of it. When reading through these 6 🔑’s, start with assessing if you are guilty of some of the undisciplined examples mentioned. If you are unsure, see if you can get a film of a practice or game you played in so you can evaluate it from a 3rd person perspective.

And here’s the thing - we have ALL been guilty of exhibiting body language that wasn’t the most disciplined. So don’t go beating yourself up over it, just begin to become more aware of it and, if you truly care about improving this behavior, most of it will take care of itself over time!
