“There is no game that requires such skill as basketball”
Coach Adrian Rich
Hey, I’m Coach Rich! Whether through playing. coaching or skills training, I’ve been around basketball for almost three decades. I’ve been blessed to be around several basketball minds to include expert amateur coaches, Hall of Fame college players, and NBA greats. Seeing success at so many levels allowed me to learn and develop as it relates to basketball in a way that I will always be grateful.
I earned a full scholarship to play Division 1 basketball at Virginia Military Institute. It was the development that I received skill-wise, physically and mentally that allowed this opportunity. It was in Middle/High School where all of the development over the years came together as I believe these are the most important years for growth. I was blessed to be exposed to great coaches, college players and NBA players at this point which led to me developing into an All-State, All-Region, and All-Conference Player.
I paint this picture as it takes intentional development to be the best basketball player you can be. I was exposed to the right people who took a chance on me and if you’re ready to put in the work as an athlete, I will take a chance on you! AR Skillz Training is about putting you in the best position to reach your goals. So let’s get started, put in the work and see where it goes. If you’re ready, schedule a session with me below!
Skill
Skill development and the ability to make effective progress is one of the most essential elements to basketball. I believe that no other game requires the level of skill as basketball. With a rapidly growing development in skill internationally, focus needs to be placed on skill now more than ever.
Physical
Basketball is a very physical game. If an athlete cannot compete physically, then they will not progress in today’s game. AR Skillz Training focuses on practical physical development that will translate to in-game results.
Mental
Mentality is by far the most important element of the game. My focus has always been development of character alongside development of an athlete. Leadership. toughness, intelligence, awareness, amongst many others are mental skillsets that translate on the court and well after an athletes playing days are over. Often times, I spend time talking to players from a psychological standpoint. I am a firm believer in teaching and getting understanding on why we are doing what we are doing. The ultimate goal with AR Skillz Training is helping athletes attain their highest level of athletic performance while equipping them for life-long success.
