Keep Pushing!
PREP & LTB Training back in action after a few weeks off..so pumped to have my baby girl participating in one of group sessions, she held her own with the boys (older boys at that). Looking forward to a great Fall with over 100 kids throughout the different age groups.
Ascend Hoops back in action, the boys competed hard in our first day back!
A family member asked me help them with some basketball basics for a church camp they are leading this week so I asked my daughter to help with some of the demonstrations. Check out the non verbal commentary (before and after) the demo in this video. I had no clue she was doing it until I played the video back last night (please ignore me, its obvious this was unscripted and rushed last minute as a way to help....her part however is priceless!!!)
Nothing more rewarding then seeing a players hardwork pay off and getting messages like this. Congrats @iam_dvc you have all the tools, keep grinding!
Easter Special đ¤Ŗđ¤Ŗ all jokes aside these spaces will go fast, let's go get better!
Wrapped up a great weekend of hoops w/ the CLBL 5th Grade All-Star Charity Classic. Our team represented Loudoun Hunger Relief. Super proud of the boys winning the 3 game series, which added a few hundred extra dollars to the overall donation. Extremely honored to be able to coach alongside @wikelg. The cherry on top was getting to coach Brycen (2nd All-Star selection and first time playing in the classic as last years tournament was canceled due to COVID).
Wrapped up another great Winter training series these 4 groups...the boys worked extremely hard the last few months. Look forward to Spring
Extremely proud of these hometown role models, talk about a leaving a legacy and being recognized for a lifetime of service. Proud of you Pops and Mr. Givens
Working on increasing quickness...no exclusion for the big men either
Older boys working...
Winter Training coming to a close, these boys have been working hard, the progress has been great to see
Jordyn with the high paced change of direction and sweet finish (but only a 9 out of 10 because she wasn't using her left hand to push the ball up first...she is only 6 though đ¤ˇđžââī¸).
"Skies the limit" baby girl. Your journey is just beginning but I pray you always keep that drive to be better than you were the day before - not just in basketball but in life! (One week until her basketball debut) đâšī¸ââī¸
After their first practice, Brycen's coach gave the team a "Ball Handling" challenge. A series of timed drills 2x a week for the rest of December, which started yesterday. Two days in and his weekly minimum is already met. What makes me so proud is that he was out there in 35° temps and rain. Knowing he has 5 more days this week he easily could have decided to wait for better weather. His hands were frozen and you can see the frustration he had as he lost the ball multiple times. Regardless he did what most aren't willing to do, and for that he grew exponentially! Proud dad/coach/trainer moment for sure. (excuse the video quality it was taken in full creeper mode đ¤Ŗ)
Receiving a message like this was a great way to end my week. This gets me so excited to get on the court with that next hungry player who truly wants to put in the work. Congrats Braden!
Getting ready for her first ever hoop season (hopefully)
More clips of Ryan Castleberry displaying his skill set. Hope @flinthillschool has this incoming freshmen on their radar đ
Can't forget my guys @castleberry_ryan511 and @castleberry2211, these boys have been grinding in 90° weather multiple days a week with me. No complaints they just get it done! Their skill set is off the charts, but they continue to look for ways to improve!
Last night kicked off a Weekly Advanced Shooting Clinic, 15 young men eager to grow. It's all about finding "their" shot and getting up reps. We are going to focus on form, footwork and muscle memory...but most of all CONFIDENCE to let that thing fly!!! Excited for what is taking place with PREP and its parternships.
Something from the archives (okay maybe it was taken just last week). She's so focused on getting ready for her first ever basketball season in the Winter. Check out the fundamentals (left hand/right hand no problem), turning 6 in July đ
Almost that time...so ready to get back to the lab đđđ
So much to say but must start by thanking God for not only planting the seed but giving me everything I need to cultivate that seed into reality. He is always faithful! I have to thank my amazing supportive wife and kids for allowing me to take time away from them, your sacrifice does not go unnoticed and I love you for that. To the players that come to work every single session and are hungry to grow. Thank you to all of parents who have trusted me to help your kids develop their basketball skills. Lastly, to my entire support system who believe in me, encourage me, work hand and hand with me and who pray for me. This program is still in the infancy stages but I love the direction it is headed. Ultimately I am blessed that I've been able to do it on my own terms and be authentic in my training, focusing on what matter most. I look forward to what is ahead. Shout out to my amazing bro in law/video guy...I promise to stay humble but this video really makes me feel like I'm legit!!!
She's back at...I just may have to get the official training started...she's ready!!
Without a doubt two of the hardest working, most coachable players I've ever trained. They embrace their makes and adjust right away. The subtle improvements they make each week is amazing to see. Keep at it fellas @castleberry2211 @castleberry567
Recieved this framed picture today from @washcollmbb @goodyhoops I really appreciate it! It has been hanging in the gym office area for 15+ years. I'm assuming you took it down with the idea of hanging my jersey in the rafters?? đ¤đđ¤ˇđžââī¸.
On the move!
The game is there, the mindset is coming. 6' 7" (and growing) w/range. Give me the summer to get that bounce and explosivness to the rim and @iam_dvc is going to be a major problem next season. I can't wait to be able to post a video of that backboard tap w/ the heavy ball and it be a mikan dunks w/ the heavy ball...i believe đ

@iam_dvc is 6 ' 7"JR. We just finished our 2nd session and I couldnt be more excited to help pull out all of the potential he has. His shooting stroke & range are out of this world for a kid his size, but even that we are fine tuning. However our biggest focus is his aggressiveness and explosiveness. He has a lot of doubters and hopefully uses that as fuel to work even harder...give us a few weeks and check back on him...đ
Been working w/ Ryan & Justin the last couple of weeks...they are HUNGRY to improve!!! @castleberry567
Another year in the books, added another chip (đđđđđ) to the resume. Gotta say this one may be the most rewarding, joined this squad last yr after my previous dynasty stopped playing. We lost the ship in OT, came back this yr to take home the hardware. Son's season ended w/ a chip, coaching season....ended đ, and playing season ended w/ a chip, not too bad of a yr....w/ that said it's training season..PREP is open for business!!!
First coaching season in the books. It was humbling for sure but all in all it was rewarding. They say you learn more losing than you do winning, if thats true we finished the season as a pretty smart bunch đ. In all seriousness I was super proud of these boys, they worked extremely hard all season, improved week to week and stayed together as a unit no matter what, so for that we can call the season a success. I hope they continue to work on their games this offseason and come back even more hungry next season....
Super proud of our boy and his squad. 3rd Grade Champs! They took the difficult route as the #4 seed but beat both of the teams they lost to in the regular season as well as the undefeated #1 seed on their way to the title. Great job to the boys and their amazing coaches #31
