I have had the pleasure of being around Blake and Findaballer since early in high school and I can truly say I have had nothing but positive experiences. The passion for the game is evident everywhere throughout Findaballer, and it shows through in the energy and consistent attention to detail put forward in every training session. From learning the basics of ball handling, footwork and shooting to more advances skill training they helped me improve my game at every stage of my development. In addition to training sessions Findaballer constantly captured the top moments on court of both my teammates and myself. I continue to value the lessons I learned from Findaballer today not only on the court but in my everyday life. Blake taught me what it truly means to be dedicated to improving yourself and the relentless passion day in and day out required to do so.

I have known Blake and Findaballer since Middle School and I could not be more pleased with the relationship and results we have had together over the years. Findaballer does a fantastic job of pushing you to become the best you can be, while focusing on the fundamentals of the sport to improve your game. The training sessions are intense and demand that you bring your maximum effort every time you step on the court. During my high school career, the results of Findaballer showed on the court and were recorded on film to help prepare me for the future. The commitment and passion for the game of basketball from Findaballer cannot be compared anywhere else.

Working with FindABaller allowed me the opportunity to encounter some great hard working kids and also helped me to gain a better understanding of the game of basketball. Blake is extremely knowledgeable and challenges you to push the envelope in order to reach your full potential. Before working with Blake I was very athletic and hard working but lacked specific skills necessary to advance me to the next level. Blake helped me to target these problematic areas and eventually sharpen my skill level. After spending many early mornings and late nights in the gym I can now say that I am 100% a better person, player and teammate.

On behalf of the 84th Precinct Community Council I thank you for your participation in our 35th annual National Night Out event. This annual event that we hold in Downtown Brooklyn usually has hundreds of neighbors, community members, elected officials, and business people attending. We always have a great event. This year with your participation, our event was even more successful than ever. The bar has definitely been raised.

Your demonstration was nothing short of spectacular. The basketball drills that you showed us were unbelievable. You and your staff were able to explain and break down every move in a way that only an accomplished professional could. I’ve already had many requests for Findaballer to return next year.
Again, my thanks to everyone over at Findaballer for their support, their professionalism, and their ability to work a crowd.

Sincerely,

Mark Gelbs
President
84th Precinct Community Council

I began training with Blake and other Findaballer coaches when I was very young. When I first started, I could barely make a layup and lacked confidence in the game and myself. Blake spent tons of time helping me with my fundamentals and really focused on the little things. Fast forward a couple years and I had the privilege of playing collegiate basketball. Findaballer not only helped me physically, but mentally as well. As I grow up and become an adult, I see myself using the tools I learnt from Blake in my personal and professional life.
