"Working with Coach Leasure has opened my eyes up for the game of basketball. Training with Coach is fun, but intense. His fundamental approach to training has prepared me to be confident in my skillset." -Anthony Iglesia (University of Washington)
Coach Leasure is one of the best teachers in the game. He understands all aspects of basketball and he thrives with teaching individual skills. He's worked with several of our players over the years and I’ve seen drastic improvements from players who have committed to working with him.
-Tyler Roberts (Victor Boys Varsity Head Coach, 2023 NY State AA State Champions)
"For me going to camp helped me find my love for the game and a passion to help the younger generation understand the commitment and hard work it takes to become a great player. It helped me elevate my game to the next level."
-Jermaine Taggart (St. Rose University, Roberts Wesleyan)
"Working with Jack Leasure gave me the skills and confidence to compete at the D1 level. I was able to challenge myself to do drills that made me uncomfortable. Once I got to college, any drill thrown at me, I was able to tackle with confidence. Jacks creativity and enthusiasm in workouts showed his focus on bettering my game specifically. I'm extremely glad I worked with Jack, it definitely helped develop all aspects of my game."
-Katie Healy, (St Bonaventure 2016, ALL Atlantic-10)
"Our guys have really shown an increase in shot making ability with help from Coach Leasure's training. The pre-shot preparation and footwork allows them to get their shot off in closer spaces and with confidence. We will be utilizing more skill development training with Coach Leasure again this off-season!"
- Coach Troy Prince (Hilton Varsity Boys)
"Coach Leasure did skill work sessions with our varsity boys for the past two years. The gym sessions were always intense and purposeful. Jack is an outstanding presenter when teaching new skills and my players have benefited each season from their work with coach Leasure. He ends each session with emphasizing the importance of player accountability; how to be a good teammate, how hard are you working in the off-season, what is your body language? I really valued this because these are major points of emphasis in our program."
-Coach Jimmy Davern (Canandaigua Varsity Boys)
"Jack's sessions are full of energy, clarity and positivity. He simplifies the complex and knows how to challenge every caliber of player. Our teams always look forward to working with him.
What we've seen in the girls...Our players have improved their footwork and refined their shooting skills with Jack. He focused on finishing and shot readiness specifically. He encouraged all of them to be shooters and scorers."
-Coach Dan Heise (Hilton Girls, 2024 Section V Champions)
"Over the past ten years Wayne has had several players who have developed their game with Coach Leasure. This really helped their confidence and understanding of the game. I highly recommend players to attend these sessions.
-Coach Bill Thomson (Wayne Varsity Boys, 2024 Section V Champions)

"We’ll never forget the first time Justin worked with Jack, he had sweat pouring down his face and he looked as if he ran 5 miles but with a big smile on his face he turned to us and said, “Can I train with Jack again?” Well, that was the beginning of the best investment we have ever made! With HARD WORK, correction, and repetition he has taken his play to another level and he is gaining the confidence he needs and he has learned lifelong lessons that will serve him well in all aspects of his life. Justin is looking forward to the July Shooting & Skills Camp."
"He(Jack Leasure) is one of the smartest players I have ever played with or coached"
- Buzz Peterson (UNC National Champion 1982, Head Coach Tennessee, App. State, Coastal Carolina, UNC-Wilmington, Asst. GM Charlotte Hornets)
"Jack Leasure's committment to continual hard work and attention to detail is at the core of every one of his training sessions. I've had the pleasure watching him in action up close as he's worked with my son Jack over the past two years and as he's helped train my 7th grade travel basketball team this past season.
He has a unique ability to break down and teach both the basic and advanced skills that all players need to master to become great. His enthusiasm for the game is infectious and his ability to really connect as he teaches is undeniable ! Jack has not only been an integral part of my son's development as a young basketball player but, he's become a mentor that is helping shape his character as a young man."
"The Shooting and Skills Camp was an excellent opportunity for my son to learn from a current pro player! He will definitely return for camp next year."
"It was amazing to see the improvement in my son’s game after working with Jack Leasure. There was rapid improvement in his shooting, ball handling, and footwork skills. Jack’s training and skill development gave my son a sense of confidence which greatly assisted him in being successful at his school tryouts.
My son considers it a privilege to work out with Jack. The sessions are tough and demanding, but he can’t wait to get back to the gym."
"Jack Leasure Basketball camps are a hidden treasure for developing players. It's amazing how he can bring out the best in kids."
"Training with Jack Leasure has been extremely beneficial. Training with him has helped me improve my weaknesses and further develop my strength. Jack has an incredible knowledge of the game which allows him to identify a mistake I make and know how to correct it right away. When I miss a shot he tells me why and I'm able to make a correction and hit a lot of shots in a row. Jack emphasizes the little things that are so important when you play such as staying low and in a good stance and pounding every dribble. The drills are extremely beneficial. I am able to take the skills I develop in the drills into games. I have seen a big improvement in my game in the couple months I have been training with Jack and I look forward to further improvement that I know will come with training with him."
