Join the Revolution
Revolution Basketball Training is located in Manchester and Milford, CT. We train athletes to manage and develop their skills through Individual, Intense, & Innovative (the “Triple I”) basketball skill development in a small group setting with a consistent practice regimen.
What We Do
Teaching and demonstrating high-level skill development, RBT’s Skill Specialists break down footwork finishing, body positioning, ball handling, and shooting mechanics with intensity, speed, and repetition to help athletes become better players.
RBT mainly focuses on skill enhancement. And, during our personal training sessions and clinics and camps, we focus on game enhancement teaching the player how and when to use those tools under real pressure — which is critical for becoming a good player in actual games.
In both cases, we will ask our students to go outside their comfort zone to figure out their weaknesses and work on them.
What To Expect
