Why PDM Labs

Built for Real Progress

Labs sessions are structured, focused, and progressive, so players keep improving week after week instead of repeating the same drills.

02
✓

Progressive Modules

Training builds week to week, layering new skills on top of the ones players have already learned.

03
✓

Professional Coaching

Every session is run by PDM's professional coaching staff, with a clear plan and real teaching.

Testimonials

Trusted by Pro Coaches

What coaches from FIBA and the NBA G-League say about PDM coach Aaron Redpath.

“

Aaron Redpath has a high basketball IQ. His understanding of the game is beyond a system, it's on the execution. Aaron is the perfect person to teach kids the understanding and execution of the game on top of the fundamentals. PDM Basketball will take you to the next level.

Bernardo FitzGonzalez

FIBA Head Coach
“

Aaron Redpath has a great understanding of the game from a player's perspective as well as a coach's perspective. Not all high level players possess this attribute, which makes Aaron an extremely valuable resource to teach young players the game. PDM Basketball is sure to expand players' basketball knowledge and IQ.

Saulo Hernández

FIBA Head Coach
“

Aaron was a great player for us at Saint John. He was a poised playmaker, a capable scorer, a knockdown shooter, and a fierce competitor. He always played with great technique, pace and vision while being a great orchestrator on the floor.
