There are a number of incredible individual coaches in the area that can personalize workouts to help your specific needs. The training that Boulder offers, especially during the summer, is catered to the program needs as a whole and even though that might cover a large chunk of the need, you may have individual needs that you would like to focus on. With that in mind, there are a few trainers below that our basketball program would recommend (for a fee, those fees vary & you will need to reach out directly to these trainers). Being that there is no direct affiliation with Boulder High School, you are free to choose what is best for your development. These trainers have a proven track record for fundamental development and player progress. The coaching staff at Boulder is happy to help out with what option might be best for you, so please feel free to reach out.
