What families say

Chicago families

My 9 year old started the program this summer and has improved a ton! The instruction is exactly what he needs and the coaches hold a high bar for all players to stay focused and improve their games. They also clearly care about the kids.

Laura M., PSB Chicago family

We joined PSB for club basketball for the first time this past Spring and I have been so impressed with the program. My kids have participated in a number of basketball and volleyball club programs over the years and none of them have compared with PSB in terms of quality of coaching and communication from program leadership. Perhaps most importantly, the coaches maintain a level of professionalism I have not experienced elsewhere and present themselves as consistently good role models for the kids, which I really value.

Laura T., PSB Chicago family

A fantastic program with top notch coaches who really care about the kids. The competition is great, the practices are challenging, and they really care about helping each kid individually. Shane, who runs the program, is fantastic and both he and the two coaches Matt and Matt are passionate about kids and basketball. I canโ€™t say enough nice things about this program.
