Elevate your Awareness with High Perception Hoops
Modern Basketball Training Focused on IQ Development and Decision-Making
About us
High Perception Hoops
We are a new kind of basketball training and development organization focused on developing basketball IQ and decision-making. Here’s what separates us:
​
Our players develop a strong understanding of shot selection, spacing, ball movement and player movement concepts
​
Our model allows developing skills to better transfer from training to competition
​
Committed players will see greater improvement in less time than solo practice or gameplay without feedback
Higher level coaching = higher quality practice. Our coaches have college coaching experience and know what it takes to be successful at the next level
More fun: we train through structured games, not drills, and foster healthy competition

HPH Playmaker Basketball - Summer Session Announced!
After a successful spring season, we are pleased to announce we will be running another session this summer!! Our summer session runs for six weeks, starting the week of July 10th, and runs through the week of August 14th. We are expanding to include groups for girls and boys in the 3rd and 4th grade as well! Registration is open now, click below to sign up and reserve your spot today!
Playmaker Training is the alternative to AAU. Our model focuses on teaching concepts first, and technique second. We help novice and developing basketball players understand how to play the game, and then help them develop techniques (shooting, passing, ball handling) that work with their unique physiology. Every player is different, and in HPH Playmaker Training, we help our athletes develop the skills that work for them. We play lots of games, encourage learning through mistakes and create a fun environment intended to kindle a love for the game. Our athletes not only develop the skills needed to succeed on the court, but the understanding of how to use those skills in live gameplay.

We focus on developing skills as well as improving processing speed and court vision in a fast-paced, fun, competitive environment. Click Below for more info:

I have been so fortunate to work with some of the best minds in the game throughout my basketball career. They showed me there’s a better way to train that helps athletes both develop faster AND have a more fun, enjoyable experience while they do it. High Perception Hoops was founded to offer this better athletic experience to basketball players seeking to unlock their full potential.
