LTB

Website Contact the business

Founded in 2015, LTB focuses on basketball and character development of all ages. Our travel teams c LTB takes the right approach to basketball training.

Four years ago, a group of parents approached Coach Luke Toth about the struggles and frustrations they had with their travel basketball program. At the time, Coach Luke was a private school teacher and varsity assistant basketball coach, and was training youth players after high school practices. Luke started one travel team that year, and in just four years Luke Toth Basketball (LTB) was established, growing to over 20 teams. The primary reason for such success is the method in how we conduct youth basketball. While many programs, coaches, and even some parents fail to see what youth basketball is all about, the LTB model and structure has a proven success record, and is what sets us apart. Our basketball philosophy prepares players to become better players, but also prepares these young players for life. All teams and coaches within our program will make the commitment of following the LTB philosophy!
