Nothing gives me more

satisfaction than helping to

develop the individual skills of players. I have such a passion to help players realize their dreams. It is so exciting to

see players doing things that

they have never done or been able to do. Just the fact that

they are coming to me shows

a commitment on their part to get better and that kicks in my competitive juices to help them achieve their goals. Remember this motto and apply it in every situation:

TESTIMONIALS

Testimonials We believe our camps and training are on the cutting edge of teaching and training in the 21st century. It is imperative that young people are encouraged to attend our camps and begin to hone a foundation of excellence in skill development at an early age.

“

Coach Mendo has created an exceptional skill development program for basketball players who really want to succeed. The objectives are so clearly defined that the students know exactly what is being taught and how it is evaluated. This is not a ‘fluff, just keep the kids busy’ program. Many basketball players return year after year to learn the more complex skills. I highly recommend the program.”

- John Mohan, Educator, Author, Professional Athlete

Mark has attended Coach Mendezona’s camps since he was in his first years of recreational basketball to playing for premier select teams. It speaks volumes to watch Coach Mendezona’s kids at the clinics and camps. They are not only incredible basketball players (ranging from college teams to grade school), but are positive role models off the court as well.

“Our kids have been coming to your camp for the past 3 years and they love it! They have built up their skill level and confidence each time they attend the camp. We always make sure we mention Quick Handle whenever we hear someone talking about basketball camps. You’re the best!”

Testimony from a Proud Father of Brittani Reiterman. “My daughter came home from school one day in the seventh grade and told me she wanted to play basketball in college. She is only 5 feet 4 inches tall but with a competitive and big heart. One of the first things I investigated was to find basketball training for my daughter knowing that fundamentals and skill development were very important to succeed. I did my research and found a camp in Kirkland, Wash called Quick Handle ran by Coach Mendezona. I was so impressed how he taught the kids dribbling skills that I signed up for other camps as well. My daughter loved to go to Coach Mendo’s camps because she was challenged and got better each time. His training, skill development and the mental approach to the game has influenced her success more than anymore. I am proud to say that my daughter will be playing basketball at a Division 2 school next year. I want to thank Coach Mendo and Quick Handle for dramatically improving her as a basketball player.” Thanks Coach

Hey Coach. My name is Demian Walter. “I am a friend of Tommy Lizotte, who is the father of Nikhill Lizotte, who is your point guard on your 8th grade Quick Handle team. I was Nikhill Lizotte’s football coach this year, what a great kid he is to coach. I just want to take a moment to tell you I watched your 8th grade Quick Handle Gold Team play 3 different times this weekend in the Best of The West Tournament in Yakima this last weekend. I saw your game against Friends Of Hoop, the quarterfinal game against the Seattle Rotary and your championship game against Team Washington. I must tell you your team is the best middle school aged team I have ever seen come through Yakima and I have officiated the Best of The West tournament for many years. The reason I make that statement is because your team plays such great team ball & is so unselfish. We all know that these elite tournaments consist of teams made up of all superstars, but to me what was so impressive about your team was the way they played as a team, sharing the ball, setting each other up and playing unbelievable team defense and the most intense totally dialed in group of kids I have seen. It is a real testament to you as a coach, because I have seen a lot of elite teams in AAU and I have just never seen a team with all those attributes I just listed. My son and I sat a few rows behind your bench in the championship game and we constantly heard you reminding your team that it is not about one individual it’s about togetherness. I loved the way you challenged your big tall center (I believe his name is Cal) when he was on the bench in the first half when you told him to start being a leader etc etc. All in all it was just an absolute treat to watch your team play and to see youth basketball played with such a premium on a complete team concept. Looking forward to watching your team play in the future”.

- Sincerely Demian Walter

My son, KJ, has always played the post. KJ went to the Quick Handle Ball Handling Camp and it was the best camp my son has ever gone to. I like the fact that the camp focused on one aspect of the game. The camp was very affordable and was the best money I’ve ever spent on a camp. There was a very noticeable change not only in his ball handling but more importantly in his confidence and his work ethic.

- Kevin Smith, Concord, California

Coach Mendoza, Loved listening to your message “Dig Deep”. I tell you...you are a great motivational speaker, not only for basketball, but for everything. You would do great in the business world teaching your brand of leadership and positive energy. I’ve heard many people and I feel you are one of the best. These words were so resonating: “No excuses, don’t accept mediocrity, dream big, push to the max, go for it...but all this is not easy”. I also love to hear that you get parents involved. Get them pumped up. Demand excellence. Love that kind of talk! This is working together - Coach Mendo, staff, parents, teammates maximizing the kid’s potential and love of the game. I spoke with both of my sons (going on 8th and 10th). We want to signup for the Point Guard Camp Aug 5-8th. I need to take a look at the website again couldn’t find where you register on-line though.
