"From the moment Coach Joshua found me playing at my local basketball court. I knew more opportunities were about to come my way. From the moment he took me under his wing, he has allowed me to improve and work on myself right down from the advanced fundamentals, to the advanced side of basketball.
This enabled me to play against greater competition in order for myself to grow as an individual basketball player and person.
Coach Joshua has heavily promoted the "I can do anything" mindset in me. There were many moments in which I doubted myself with second-guessing a certain play or decision. Coach Joshua has always backed me up on my decisions but also stated what areas I have gone wrong in and what I could improve on which are key attributes that any player would want from their coach, as no matter what they will not get deterred from playing basketball only improving and bettering myself".

"Valyouth was more than just a basketball team, it was a family. The resilient staff team have helped me to improve both on the court and off the court, coach Joshua especially. Not only did he impact us with knowledge of the game, but he also built us up in discipline and diligence which are valuable skills that translate to other areas of life as well.
The intense workouts that took place year-round allowed me to take my game to the next level. The sessions were always delivered with passion and care, it was a place where everybody was considered to be a somebody, every opinion mattered. I had incredible time in my three years at Valyouth and would be quick to recommend it to anyone that seeks to hone their basketball skills while also making life-long friends.
Where enthusiasm and a good work ethic meet, success is never far off and I would most definitely consider this programme a success."

" I am writing regarding the fact that I have been studying basketball if that's what we should say about coach Josh for the past three years. I met Coach Josh at Carpenters in Stratford, which is where I played basketball with all the young people, my age which he was coaching. This helps me get more into basketball and also communicate and socialize with other people who have the same interests. Coach Josh was really helpful because he helped me gain more confidence on the court including showing me different training exercises I should be doing, which I still do today.”

"The greatest of all. His passionate enthusiasm for the game has encouraged my own love for basketball in ways I never anticipated. I am now a more skilled and confident player, thanks to his knowledge of the game and commitment to teaching the fundamentals of the sport. i didn't have any of these when I first joined the sessions, but now I can dominate courts. His method of coaching has inspired me to perform at my best both on and off the court.
I've become better as an individual as a result of his emphasis on cooperation, self-control, and perseverance. He has taught me the value of respect and hard work- VALUES I will keep with me throughout my life. Coach Josh is more than simply a coach; he also serves as a mentor and a role model. Your continuous encouragement during tough times and your sincere joy at our victories have taught me what true leadership-entails. I was motivated to attain new heights and have confidence in myself by your coaching. We appreciate you as a fantastic coach."

"Throughout my journey playing basketball. I've never met any coaches that have been as selfless as coach Josh. He helped me tremendously, not as just a player but as a person. I've seen a major positive influence on so many players. He genuinely wants the best for everyone and goes above and beyond, he always gave constructive criticism to further better everyone's abilities and would also give 1 to 1 feedback on your pros and cons. The UK need more people like him in the basketball industry."

“Valyouth has developed my skill level tremendously throughout my basketball career. It really helped my mental health during those struggling times with covid and family life. The workouts year-round and practices helped me take my game to the next level. Coach Josh and the rest of the staff taught me how to be smart and work hard the right way. all of the coaches, always bring so much energy and enthusiasm to every workout. Most important everyone at Valyouth wants to see you succeed and they do anything in their control to guide you. I had an incredible time with my three years on the Valyouth team and couldn't have asked for a better program to be a part of. “

"Before meeting him, I was a very offensive-heavy player who thought I was the best on every team. When I first met Coach J, I didn’t like him very much. The reason was because I thought I knew everything and there was nothing he could teach me so I didn’t really need to listen to him. My attitude was horrible and I didn’t like to accept my own deficiencies. Through Coach, I understood what it meant to be a team player and how to act like a leader. He helped me learn how to trust my teammates and get others involved so that I wouldn’t be so ball-dominant.
If I’m being honest, he also taught me about life, about being a man, how to carry myself and act in a way I can be proud of.
Simply put, without Coach I wouldn’t be half the player nor man I am today."
