"(Sayuki) went from someone who was at the end of the bench, just getting a little bit of playing time, focusing on rebounding and defense to arguably one of the most consistent outside shooters on her team.
She went from somebody that was eager to get the ball out of her hands as soon as it came to her, in her seventh grade year, to someone that, when her team was having trouble breaking the press, her coach would put in as point guard. She became one of the primary ball handlers.
And that confidence went beyond the basketball court - She became a team captain last year - Which was amazing to see - and she's more involved in leadership things at school at this point. So when I say that the expense feels well justified on our end, that is a literal fact."

"BJ is a fantastic coach who has really helped develop my son’s skills as well as his love of the game. BJ coaches in such a supportive way that makes my son feel comfortable and wanting to get more and more coaching. We feel so lucky to have found him."
- Nikki Curran
"Exceptional basketball training based in NH. My child has grown both as a player and as a person while working with Coach BJ Mumford. He is very detailed and the training is technical. Highly recommend."

Most team practices are about activity rather than effectiveness, making players "sweat" doing anything the coach or trainer can pull out of the air
Most of that has anything to do with game performance, so as a parent you are left with what I call "Sweat and hope" as your only strategy...
Trusting that by doing enough volume of activity, enough "sweating", your player will hopefully, someday, maybe make progress.
I'm done with that (even though that is how I started)
Kids are working too hard and trusting coaches too much to just "grind" on whatever whimsical ideas the coach gives them for the day.
What we want is results that translate to game performance.
Not some things some of the time, but everything, every time.
So, starting in 2025 we are instituting a new guarantee on all of our training:
If your player doesn't have a measurable improvement in game performance after 4 weeks with us, we will give you your money back.
Our 4-Week Focus courses have helped over 200 players achieve specific results in 4 weeks, and we have never issued a refund. Our method works.
New Format
Starting in January 2025, we will be offering all 4-Week Focus courses in both a group and individual format.
- Group sessions will be on Tues or Thurs nights 6-7pm working directly with me, and a maximum of 8 players on the court for 60 minutes at a time, and the advantage of head to head application of skill via competition
- Individual sessions will be with my associate coaches, on a customized schedule that fits your player's needs, for 30 minutes at a time.
Both formats are offered at the same price of $425 per course, and include:
- 1 Weekly "priming" video before workout
- 1 Weekly workout
- 1 Weekly video recording of the workout
- 1 Weekly Quiz
I am also introducing 3 new courses in 2025, for a total of 9!
- Footwork Fanatic
- Sniper
- Ball Handling Buccaneer* - coming soon June 2025
- Layup Maker
- Renegade Rebounder
- Mover & Shaker
- Defensive Dictator
- Master Passer*
- Decision Maker*
*Coming soon in 2025!
4 touch points we use every week to layer on each concept like a coat of paint - what we call our "PERQ" System:

Green SOCKS™ to Blue SOCKS™ transition program for players:
Why only 4 weeks?
Going deep on a single focus with a hybrid approach for 4-weeks is our tried-and-tested solution to mastering a skill set, and each of our courses uses "interleaving" to overlap on core skills and concepts from a variety of game situations
Why so expensive?
We deliver game performance results, guaranteed. We are not counting minutes... What you get is up to you, how we deliver it and how long it takes is up to us!
We spent 20 years perfecting our instructions and progression of skills and concepts to eliminate wasted time and maximize the effectiveness of our repetitions
We specialize in this age group of 5th-9th grade, so we know exactly what they are capable of, how they think, and what works for them
We are a simplifier - we can take the most complex skill and concept and make it digestible, achievable, and even easy for your player in minutes
Isn't this just another "skills and drills" night?
No! Skills and drills is what everyone else does:
- often as a token add-on to a program, otherwise focused on team coaching
- with huge groups of 20+ kids on a court
- working on skills in isolation from any decision-making or game application
We work with a max of 8 players per group, with competitive discovery of problems, skills as solutions, and immediate game application of skill in competitive situations
Why should I choose the Group vs 1on1 format?
1on1 training is like tutoring for players that are beginners, feel behind their peers, or are new to a skill or concept - it has a great amount of leverage in getting 150+ repetitions with the full focus of coach and player
The Group format makes everything we do translate better to games with our Play-Practice-Play format - we play to discover why we need a skill, breakdown the skill as a solution to a problem, then play again to test it vs live defense. Coach BJ's expertise in instructions and feedback allow him to touch a group of up to 8 players with specific individual feedback on every repetition, while they get the benefit of competitive application of each skill
What if I can't make it to the group training session?
- We offer this program in 1on1 and group format, so if you know you'll have to miss a session in advance, we will make it up in a 1on1 session instead! (Make up session needs must be stated at start of the program)
If your player doesn't have a measurable improvement in game performance after 4 weeks with us, we will give you your money back
