"The Next Level Skills program is an awesome program for any athlete. Not only does Coach Pope teach basketball, but also life outside of basketball. He emphasizes that education should be top priority and that to me is very important for any athlete to remember. His monthly video newsletter is a great way to see athletes who have gone through the program and their progress. The opportunity to volunteer is also a great way for young athletes, such as my son, to help out in the community. I am grateful for a program like this one." - Nina Lowery, Mother of '25 Student-Athlete

"When I met Coach Pope I didn't know a thing about him and vice versa . I just wanted a trainer to prepare me for my senior year .  After the first session he knew what my weaknesses were on the court and each training session was centered around those weakness . Additionally , regarding off the court  relationships he identifies to his players the importance of getting a degree. Not just playing basketball in college but becoming a successful person in the working class realm." Erric Adams, Welch College '23

"Coach Pope has been working with my son over a year now and it was the best decision we have every made. His Coaching style has taken a look at my son individually and assisted him in his confidence and the right tools to help him develop into a solid player. The program is dependable, consistent, and positive for young men and women's futures. Coach pope is not only worried about them as athletes, but overall young adults. He wants them to succeed in life. College prep, community involvement, and helping others have been just a few things my son has come home talking about since joining this program. Coach Pope has somehow become part of our extended family, just as I witnessed him do with many other families." - Christina Bannister,  Mother of '24 Student-Athlete
