Philosophy
Our Mission is Simple
Give basketball players of all ages and skill levels what they need to be confident and successful on and off the court, as they transition and grow, throughout their basketball careers.
At JD7, our athletes are trained so that they can be successful at EVERY Level, on EVERY team, and in EVERY season. We provide quality, comprehensive instruction and guidance that progresses with the athlete. Offering a consistent presence throughout all of the transitions players make throughout their careers. Allowing them to develop the fundamental skills that are crucial not only for success in basketball but in all areas of life.
Skill Development
When formulating her JD7 Youth Athletic Basketball Programs for boys and girls, Founder, Coach Jess kept returning to the fact that there was a disconnect between what many players were being taught, and what actually happens in the game.
Players must possess certain fundamental skills, and understand how to apply these skills in games, to be successful. Unfortunately, many coaches don’t offer sound teaching, leaving athletes unable to analyze what’s happening, when it matters - on the court.
With this in mind, Coach Jess formulated programs that offer concise and easy to follow ways for young athletes to master skill sets and gain confidence as they grow both physically and mentally. These philosophies are used in all JD7 Programs.
Personal Development
A lot can be learned from playing youth sports and our athletes build a foundation for success both on and off the court. Our programs empower young athletes. Not only helping them to develop a deep understanding and love for the game, but instilling in them the confidence to succeed in basketball and beyond. By offering a coach in your corner through all of the transitions your athlete will make in their career. We cultivate a supportive community, and are a catalyst for personal growth, teamwork, and the pursuit of excellence in every aspect of our players’ lives. JD7 Programs build confidence both on and off the court!
“We found JD7 and Coach Jess last year when my son was 9. He hadn’t played team sports for a few years and really wanted to get more skilled at basketball before joining a team. Jessica’s relatability and positive attitude has made such a huge impact on my son. It kept him motivated, enthusiastic, and determined to succeed. My son doesn’t have binocular vision and Jessica was very thoughtful in the way she formulated training programs so that he can be successful playing against other athletes despite those setbacks.”
