What PDM Families Say

Real reviews from parents whose kids train with PDM, plus what pro and FIBA coaches say about our Club Director, Aaron Redpath.

★★★★★Five-star reviews from PDM families on Google
“ ★★★★★
Highest quality basketball training for young kids in the GTA. We tried other programs but were unsatisfied with the coaching quality. If you join PDM, you will realize how dedicated Aaron is and how he works with each kid individually to give them his best. The most crucial point for me is how he gives them purpose and talks to them at the beginning and after each session. His coaching quality is outstanding, with high-level dribbling work and focus on the kids throughout. He is the right choice if you're looking for a high-quality basketball program.

Coach Aaron and his team at PDM are highly skilled and committed to developing young athletes in this region. My son Nathan participated in the prep to rep program this summer and learned a lot and enjoyed every moment of his practice. Coach Sean, Coach Aaron and Coach Jake gave Nathan valuable skills that he continues to practice every day. We're looking forward to being part of this amazing basketball family, and I recommend this program to any parents looking to develop their children's basketball skills.

Coach Aaron at PDM has been working with my son for many years, and he is truly a great basketball coach. Not only does he coach basketball, but the mentality of the game and the attitude towards it. Coach speaks of lessons in basketball that easily extend into school life, and I've heard my son talk about what he learned in PDM mentality sessions and apply it at school. I'd highly recommend PDM to anyone serious about learning basketball and game strategy.

My son has been doing PDM for approximately 3 years. The quality of the coaching through Aaron and his team is among the best, if not the best, in the GTA. Their drills not only teach new skills but, because they're done at game pace, the skills transfer directly to live games. The program also focuses on IQ and fitness. Seeing how my son's skills have improved, I was very happy to hear Aaron is launching a girls session that my daughter can attend. I highly recommend this program.

I can definitely see the difference in my son's skills. He is improving very well. Coach Aaron knows what he is doing. He's not only training children and youth, he's building their confidence by believing in their talents and capabilities. I'm so glad my son is part of this team. Keep it up!

What Coaches Say

“

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.

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.

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.
