Why "ADAPT?"
We named our Academy "ADAPT" because it is truly at the center of our approach to developing strong-minded athletes, who are able to adjust and find solutions in any situation - in basketball but more importantly, in life. Through the training regimen and academy experience, our methods are battle-tested to prepare young men andd women for whatever the future has to offer.
The European Influence
Having spent time in 12 European basketball cultures, ADAPT co-Founder Coleman Ayers was able to get a feel for why European basketball is beginning to take over the game at the highest levels: the club system and a focus on development over winning at a young age.
In America, it's very common to see players' basketball development stunted incredibly young because of the desire to win, be ranked, and be seen at a young age. Across the pond, however, Coleman noticed how diligently European coaches were developing athletes...
In most high-level European systems, players:
Remain with a team for an extended period of time to gel and grow together.
Train more than they play official games.
Devote plenty of time to learning how to play the game in an efficient, team-based manner that fits into teams much more effectively at the next level.
