Testimonials
Pro Skills is a quality basketball program. Both of our kids participate in camps, skills sessions and play on Pro Skills competitive teams. We can’t say enough about the quality coaching.
Parent
Joining PSB was the best decision we made for our son. The organization and the discipline across the board has provided him so much growth, not only as a player,, but as a teammate and individual. We plan to spend the next four years with this club and recommend them to anyone wanting their son or daughter to be more than just a good athlete!
Parent
A different brand of basketball. Amazing organization and coaches. We researched a lot of AAU programs and took a leap of faith with PSB and we are glad we did. They are concerned with my son's growth in basketball but also as a young man. Cannot express how happy we are with our decision to join PSB.
Parent
"Pro Skills is a first class organization. From their AAU teams to their summer camps, everything is organized and very well run. All the coaches have extensive experience and stress fundamental development at bothe the team and individual level. Highly recommend the program."

Testimonials
You all run a fantastic program! I am always so impressed with how fun the practices are but also how valuable they are. You all use every ounce of time in such a productive and positive way. In all my boys' sporting experiences (and there have been many!) your program has to be one of, if not the, best I've seen. Keep up the great work!
