My son Adrien started basketball with Coach Deon at the age of 5. He was a beginner in the summer of 2024 and a year later has already had an AAU team reach out asking for him to try out!
He learned so much & grew so rapidly within a year with Deon! But most importantly this program helped my son truly fall in love with basketball. It was his 1st introduction to the sport and he has not put down a basketball ever since! We have tried different programs but my son always wants to come back to Deon because it’s his favorite place! He feels at home here and they treat him like a part of the family!
He even wears his Deon shirts to school/park/home… everywhere… to represent! Highly recommend, great beginner program!
