WORK ON YOUR GAME. 

with Matt McElroy, basketball trainer for all levels in Springfield, IL.

ABOUT

MATT MCELROY

I have been developing sports players into athletes for more than 20 years, with training options that cater to all levels, in the central Illinois area. My coaching experience includes Sacred Heart-Griffin boys basketball for the past 5 years, previously coaching for Robert Morris University men's basketball for 13 years. In addition, I share my love for the game with my daughter and have been very active in coaching and training girls basketball in both grade school sports and competitively. 

 

If you’re going to truly excel in your sport, you’ll need a great basketball trainer. That’s why I’ve made it my mission to work with aspiring athletes to get them more focused, powerful and more technically proficient than they've ever been before. I believe in training to win and competing with sportsmanship.
