Website Accolades “I am a Varsity Basketball coach in Southern California. I liked what I saw with your website” Chris Cone, Fillmore, CA, USA “My name is Mike Begeman. I have been a high school basketball coach
for 22 years and I was browsing through some basketball sites when I ran
across yours. I really like it and ironically, we run some of the same
offensive schemes that you do.” “I’m a basketball coach here in the Netherlands, and was searching
for drills the players can do at home during the summer. The information
you’ve got at your website is great. (the stuff at “coaching”) Can I use
that and translate in into my own language?” “I'm a basketball coach in Belgium, and I am very interested in your
coaching information.” “Congratulations with your site!!” “Congratulations on the Grizzlies website. It really is a worthwhile
site with lots of good info and I particularly like the links you have
provided. I have had several parents / coaches from other teams comment
to me how impressed they are and I know a few are already considering
plagiarism on certain aspects.” “I came across your site on The Coach's Clipboard. I coach an U/14
boys team in the Dublin city league here in Ireland ( Swords Basketball
Club ) and thought I would just say hello and congratulations on your
excellent site.” “I happened across your site and wanted to compliment you on it. You
have some very useful basketball information on your website." “I have set up a web page for my local club. I have placed a link to
your page as I have found heaps of info which will help our club.” “Hello from the US. Just happened to stumble onto your website
yesterday and it looks like it will be very helpful. I am just starting
a season with a 12 year old girls basketball team.” “My name is Graeme Russell. I live in Toowoomba, Queensland and I'm
just beginning in the basketball coaching game (my 9 yo daughter has
just started playing and I've volunteered to help with some of the
coaching). I've come across your wonderful web site with it's excellent
coaching drills and was wandering whether if I could get permission to
use some of the drills/handouts in our training sessions." “I just found your great basketball site. I will be adding a link to
it tomorrow when I update my page (Coach Jackson's Pages). Could you
please visit my site and consider adding a link back? I'd appreciate it
very much! " “I had a look at your drills and practice plan information and was
curious to know at what age group this is aimed at, I coach u12+u14's
with 1 hour practice each week and feel the information you have
provided as being very useful.” “I am just wondering if you did up the player handouts, drills &
checklist yourself or they are from another website. If they are can you
pass it on please? If not, I am doing up a coach's handbook and I am
wondering if you would give me permission to use your files in that
handbook? It is for my club team.” “Anyway, thanks for responding and thanks for having such a great
resource - I use the drills in my training sessions a lot. err... well
I've only had 3 thus far - but I *will* be using them a lot.” “I printed everything out and found many useful drills and loved the
handouts. Myself and the boys coach at my school thank you so much.” “You have a very nice site going there - well laid out and
attractive. I will be taking a peek at your pdf files. Looks like you
have some good information to offer. You are now on my links page. Hope
to see you on Chalk Talk. Good luck with your organization.” “I just downloaded the 54 page book of drills and I am very
impressed. That is a great resource. I will drop a note in Chalk Talk
and suggest other coaches do the same. Illustrations really add a lot.
My compliments to the author.” “Really like your information. Good Job.” “Have been looking at your website and like the look of it. Have
chosen to feature it in our coaches newsletter that Basketball NSW
produces electronically. I hope this is ok. I really like he look of
your player handouts. Would love to have some stuff like that on
Basketball NSW's website for kids to access. We have not had a lot of
information in our coaches and players part of the website however I
hope to change that in the near future. If you have any ideas drop me a
line.” “Just a note to say I have thoroughly enjoyed researching basketball
from your site and really appreciate the information and effort the
"Grizzlies' have gone to in the promotion of good basketball coaching
practices.” “Because I like your website I have suggested it as a link on a very
complete Dutch basketball Links Page. You can see it yourself on http://basketbal.pagina.nl/
and maybe there are some other useful links for you.” “Just thought I'd drop you a line and let you know that I have really
enjoyed the website. I would hazard to guess that you are one of the
main people that has had input into it (if not the majority of the
input) and I would rate it as one of the best `Coaching' sites that I
have visited.” “You have a very good website for the basketball player, parent and
coach. Would you be interested in exchanging links to each others site.I
would like to add yours to my site. I am getting many hits, about
120,000 in 5 months and some would visit you also. I am trying to link
to some of the better sites and yours is certainly one of the best, full
of useful information.” “I have visited your web site a number of times. It has proved very
helpful to me here in Erin, Ontario, Canada (Erin is 50 miles northwest
of Toronto.) I downloaded your “file” of 53 drills and have been
thoroughly impressed by their usability and basic simplicity. I hadn’t
fully appreciated the hours of work that must have gone into writing up
those 53 drills until I tried to write up a few more drills to add to
your set. Man you are to be congratulated for your contribution to
basketball. Now for the big question, can you send me approval to
publish your 53 Drills on my web site? If yes, can I lift the your
Grizzly logo and incorporate it also into the republished drill giving
you full credit for the fantastic job you have done, including
authorizing me to publish it for use by visitors to my site. “ ” I’ve been running a basketball league for ages 5 to 11 for the last
6 years. We are located in Hull, Quebec, Canada. I was extremely pleased
to see the amount of information you shared with us on your website.
Your drills book and out-of-bound plays are most excellent and I will
certainly used them in a program I’m setting up for girls aged 12-16.
Thank you.” “I congratulate your club for the informative website you have and
would like to discuss the possibilty of using your site as a model for
ours and the possibility of accessing your coaching, information
sections as links from our new site. Obviously reference credits would
apply. Your club documentation is much as we have and we would like to
use your format with appropriate amendments if possible as establish our
new club.” “I was interested in the great work you have done on your site and
the drills etc you provide. I coach (presently 12 and 13 year old boys
in the Calgary community based minor basketball league. I am the past
president of the league and have coached for 7 years. I am interested in
whether we can list your drills on our community site for our volunteer
coaches. Thank-you and keep up the great work. I think what your club is
doing is wonderful.” “I visit your site very often as a novice coach at district under 14
boys level in Adelaide I have found great support at the site. Drills
are well explained as I am always looking for drills to reinforce
fundamentals but with scope to develop speed and control. Thanks .” “Hey coach, You have put together an awesome website! It has a ton of
very helpful information. I am sure I will check back often.” “We are running summer basketball camps at Grant Macewan College in
Edmonton, Canada. We are planning on using your "Player handouts on
various topics" as the main portion of our handbook that we provide to
our camp kids. Is this something that would be acceptable by your club?”
“My name is Scott Sinclair - I am the Director of Coaching in Dubbo
(NSW). I just want to congratulate your club on a fantastic website and
seek your approval to place your site within our links on our website. I
have been up here since Dec. last year after being at Melton where we
were well aware of your website. It has a great reputation for being
informative to all levels of coaching and again you guys have to be
congratulated. A very informative site for all levels. Well done and
keep up the good work.” “I first must admit your site is GREAT!! There is some really great
information found on your site! Secondly, I was wondering if you would
be interested in sometype of partnership with my website
www.sacredhoops.com If you would be interested please let me know.
Lastly, would you be interested in link exchange with our site.” “I think you have a fantastic website... I also wanted to gauge your
