Thank you for visiting Pro Skills Basketball (PSB) Colorado Springs.
Youth basketball has a reputation for being disorganized, focused only on winning and frustrating. PSB is built to be different. We give parents, players and coaches a more professional experience, with organized communication, mutual respect and personal growth, on and off the court.
Join the PSB family and help your player learn Skills for Basketball. Life. Success.




Growing up between Gary, Indiana, and South Chicago, Jim Krager developed his passion for basketball on the blacktops and in the parks, where the game was more than just a sportโit was a way of life. Though he stopped playing organized basketball after 8th grade, his love for the game only grew stronger through those competitive park battles.
Jim began his coaching journey in 2009, working with youth players and quickly discovering his passion for teaching and mentoring through basketball. In 2015, after meeting PSB Denver founder, Ross Schraeder, he began coaching with Pro Skills Basketball and has been a dedicated coach ever since. Over the years, he has coached PSB teams ranging from 5th grade through 17U, helping players develop both their skills and their character.
In 2024, Jim took the next step in his coaching career by joining the staff at Ponderosa High School as a varsity assistant coach. Now, as the Director of PSB Colorado Springs, Jim continues to create opportunities for young athletes to grow on and off the court, using the game of basketball as a tool to teach life lessons that last well beyond the final buzzer.
