Tru D1, Inc. stands for “True Determination,” which is essential for our youth to make progress in life. We use this as our mantra so that our youth can apply the skills we teach them in basketball to their life skills. Skills such as practice to make perfect, control, teamwork, awareness, and athleticism are also applicable to life.
Meet our Coaching Team
Our coach’s take it as their responsibility to build a long-lasting rapport with the athletes. It is also their responsibility to ensure the players are developmentally sound and mentally prepared to compete on all levels of the playing field whether it is recreational, school ball, collegiate and beyond. Our coaches are committed to the successful running of the organization and each individual team. They will participate in all training and engage in professional development that will help the program to continually grow and develop. They will not limit themselves to the things listed above but will also go above and beyond for the betterment of the program and the individual members.
