Here's What Others Say About PGC

WHAT NCAA and pro PLAYERS AND COACHES SAY:

Outstanding! The best clinic experience I have been witness to in 36 years of coaching! The combination of physical training and the classroom was really unique. I will definitely be encouraging players and coaches alike to experience Point Guard College.

Our entire university team attended PGC and it was the BEST teaching program I've ever seen!

A must for any young player that wants to advance to the next level – whether high school, college, or even the NBA.

PGC’s lessons on leadership, confidence and doing the little things are a must for any young player, regardless of position.

Ivory Latta, our first-team All-American point guard and NCAA Player-of-the-Year, went to Point Guard College and discovered ways to play bigger than her size. Her knowledge of the game increased tremendously. I was extremely impressed.

What College Players Say About PGC

Not only did my physical skills improve, but I learned valuable lessons on how to study, examine and think the game that I had never been exposed to before. The teaching I received helped me to become a better teammate and leader—both on and off the court.

…the PGC approach to training really opened my eyes and gave me a new perspective on how to get better. Overall, this has been the best basketball experience of my life.

I learned so much and I feel like the game has now slowed down so much for me. I played in a pick-up game last night and played the best game I have ever played.

This has been an amazing experience and I learned so much about myself and how much harder I can push myself. I got so much out of the course and I can’t wait to use these work-outs back at school. I know I’ve made a big stride in my shooting. I came here as a good shooter and I’m leaving her with the knowledge that I can and will be a great shooter. Thank you!

My vertical leap, explosiveness, quickness and strength have improved immensely. He has taken me to level in which I never thought was possible.

The gym sessions were always intense and purposeful. We knew why we were doing each drill and we were pushed to do our best. The atmosphere in the gym was amazing. There was a great sense of camaraderie. I learned so much this week and I am so grateful.

WHAT COACHES SAY ABOUT PGC

All of the gym sessions were game-like and served a definite purpose. It’s awesome how the points of emphasis were reinforced... I’ve been to approximately 50 basketball camps, and you truly have the BEST teaching program in America.

PGC is a fantastic experience for players and coaches. You will leave this program not only a better basketball player, but a better person. I would love to have an entire team of PGC graduates.

Point Guard College is an intensive indoctrination into how to play smart, minimize turnovers, and be a good leader. These are great, great teachers of the game.

PGC is basketball in its purest state: players who are eager to learn, coaches who are enthusiastic about teaching, and an atmosphere filled with positive energy. This is an experience that the players will take with them and apply to all aspects of their lives.

PGC exceeded my expectations, which were high to begin with. The coach was a superb presenter of the materials. The material was top-notch. My notes will be a resource for years to come. Thank you for this great ‘college'.

The level of intensity and effort that is demanded at all times gives you a glimpse of greatness and allows you to understand what is necessary to achieve it.

I’ve been involved in the great game of basketball for 25 years, and I learned more in the first three hours at PGC than in any ten years that I’ve spent in the game.

WHAT PLAYERS SAY ABOUT PGC

The classroom sessions changed my game more than anything else. I particularly loved the Unruffleability and the Extra Ounce lectures.

Now my approach towards everything—my training, games, relationships, teammates, school and my life—has made a 180-degree turnaround. I am so thankful that I could attend PGC.

I have gone to many different basketball camps, and there is absolutely no camp that can even hold a candle to PGC. I have never met anybody in my life that I respect more than you, Coach D. You know exactly what you are talking about, and you are the smartest person I know when it comes to basketball.

PGC Grad School opened my eyes to things I had never seen or thought about before. It has SCHAPE’d me into what I always hoped I would become—a LEADER.

These past few days have had such an impact on my mindset and my commitments. …I feel invigorated, inspired, and excited.

Most valuable week of my life. I didn't only learn how to think the game, but how to think my life as well.

My PGC experience was one of a kind. It showed me how hard I have to work to play at the next level. I enjoyed it so much that I'm planning on coming back next year. I will be taking everything I learned here and applying it to my game and my life.

WHAT PARENTS SAY ABOUT PGC

Our daughter, Susan, attended Playmaker College this past summer. You helped her to rediscover her passion for the game that she loves so much. Her approach to life, school, and basketball has all been altered in a positive way.

Zach’s coach said to him, ‘I don’t know how much you paid for Point Guard College this summer, but it was worth every penny. You’ve improved in every facet of your game.

My son has been a different kid since this basketball camp. Now he thinks talks and acts like a leader. He's playing with passion, fire, and energy. Honestly, I can’t believe it is my son. Scoring College taught him how to play the right way.

I wanted to drop you a note and tell you how impressed I was with every aspect of the program. From your leadership to your instructors, I believe you have made a positive impact both on my son as well as me. I will admit to coming to PGC as a coach and thinking I wouldn’t learn much. I have been to a lot of “camps” in my time and thought this would primarily be good for my son. There are not many times that I think I got more than I paid for, but as far as I am concerned you couldn't charge enough for the experience we both had. I believe it will change my son’s life as well as my own. I am going to use SCHAPE with all of my teams and we have instituted its principals in my own home!

Coach Mano, what you taught me this week is priceless. You have taught me so much, as a coach and as a person. The athletes gained so much trust in you because you are powerful, but in a way I have never seen in my life. You have changed me as a player and as a person.
