HWBT Training Program Overview
At HWBT, we believe in the transformative power of hard work, discipline, and dedication. Our training program is designed to develop not only the physical skills needed for basketball but also the mental toughness, work ethic, and perseverance that set great athletes apart. Whether you’re a youth player, an experienced athlete, or a parent looking to stay active, our program has something for everyone.
Meet the Coach: A Passion for Basketball and Excellence
Our founder and head coach brings a wealth of experience, dedication, and a personal commitment to developing athletes. As a standout in the Bay Area basketball scene, he was a CYO All-Star and Super 100 honoree in 8th grade, later playing JV and Varsity for St. Ignatius College Prep. Highlights of his career include:
• Representing San Francisco in a national tournament, competing against elite teams like the Atlanta Celtics (Dwight Howard, Josh Smith).
• Winning two league championships and earning MVP honors as a junior and senior at Bridgemont High School in SF.
• BACAL League MVP as a senior. Runner-up as a junior.
• Continuing to Morehouse College (D2) in Atlanta, GA, as a walk-on while prioritizing a strong education.
With this foundation, he understands what it takes to compete at a high level while balancing academic and personal growth. Now, as a Private Wealth Banker at Merrill Lynch, he brings the same level of discipline and focus to helping others succeed—both on and off the court.
