About Us

Building Fundamentals. Inspiring Confidence. Developing Winners.

A Passion That Started at Home

From One Parent’s Vision to a Community of Players

What began in 2010 as a father helping his 7-year-old child find confidence on the court has grown into a thriving basketball academy built on fundamentals, structure, and encouragement.

Over the years, Coach Johnson turned volunteer coaching into a lifelong mission — shaping athletes who not only play the game well but also love it deeply.

A Decade in the Making

After a decade coaching across New Jersey, New York, and Texas, Coach Johnson founded Johnson Basketball Training in 2019 to serve athletes.

Built on Core Values

We believe in building skill, discipline, and confidence through proven methods and a supportive environment where players learn and grow the right way.

Founder & Head Trainer

David Johnson

“It’s not about being the best on day one — it’s about getting better every day.”

— Coach David Johnson

Coach David Johnson began his journey in 2010 after stepping in to help his 7-year-old son at a local camp. What started as a parent’s desire to help soon became a calling.

Balancing a full-time job while volunteering year after year, Coach Johnson honed his craft — learning from every player, team, and camp he worked with. Over time, his passion grew into a vision: to teach basketball the right way and guide young athletes with patience, discipline, and structure.

Today, he leads Johnson Basketball Training with the same energy and heart that started it all — focused on helping players develop confidence and a lifelong love for the game.
