Private Training: We also offer private training sessions. Private sessions follow the industry standard player-to-coach ratio. This does not mean there will always be multiple players in each session. However, we reserve the right to schedule up to 3 similarly skilled players together. Please note: all players must have had a conversation with Coach Jay prior to booking these appointments.

Silverbacks Basketball Academy offers beginner-friendly basketball training classes in partnership with Gwinnett County Parks and Recreation for players ages 5-15.
