Testimonies

“Dave,

Our son is on the 7th grade Providence Day School basketball team. They just won their championship Santa Slam Tournament game at Time Warner Arena in uptown Charlotte. We want to thank you for organizing a wonderful tournament for the boys (our third Santa Slam). The boys and all of their families and friends had a fantastic time! It was such a special experience for the boys to play on the Bobcats’ court. It made their championship experience that much more special. We attend many Bobcats games there, and our son Grant did the tip off today. He said it was amazing to think that Boris Diaw and Dwight Howard would be standing in the very same spot in a matter of hours. Grant will never look at the Bobcats court the same again. His perspective has been forever changed as a result of this memorable event today. – - We think we can safely say that whether the teams won or lost their games today, it was a once in a lifetime experience that they will always remember.

We wanted to express our gratitude to you for providing this opportunity for the boys. Please accept our thank you and share it with everyone else who made this day possible.”

-Cathy and Erik

“David,

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and everyone on your staff there at Carolina Courts and those with Rhymer Fitness for all that you have done for my son, Noah, over the last year.  Our first direct experience with Carolina Courts, other than being on an outside team that played in tournaments there, was in last year’s Winter Elite League on Joel Hobbs’ team.  Noah had a FANTASTIC experience and I would highly recommend an Elite team to anyone that is looking to improve their child’s basketball skills and experience.  The difference in Noah’s abilities in that one season was amazing.  Noah picked back up with activities at Carolina Courts this fall by playing in the Fall Rec League for 12-13 year-olds, as well as participating in both Basketball Bootcamps and Extreme Shooting.  He also even managed to squeeze in a session with Bobby Robinson at Rhymer Fitness!  What impressed me most was not only the tremendous improvement in Noah’s basketball skills, but the trainers there at Carolina Courts who took the time to personally get to know Noah and help him in the areas that he needed the most.  Every time we come in the front door, they personally greet Noah and me and that is an added bonus as well, as it relays to Noah that he’s important to them and they are genuinely glad to see him there.  The icing on the cake to all of Noah’s hard work and your staff’s hard work is that Noah made his middle school basketball team, which he is so excited about!  Without all of your dedication and hard work each time Noah was there, I don’t know that the result would have been the same otherwise.  I can’t thank you and your staff enough for all that you’ve done.  I would highly recommend Carolina Courts to anyone and Noah will definitely be back in the near future for more player development and other activities!!!”

“Dave,
I just wanted to echo Lance’s comment on your willingness to help us out in this basketball journey for our players.  We are truly appreciate the passion that you have for helping young men with their physical and mental development as basketball players and life skills.”

“Hi David,

We are safely back home on the cool west coast of Canada after a fabulous trip to North Carolina.  I just wanted to say “Thank you” for an absolutely amazing experience for Harrison in his basketball training, the coaching he received was fantastic and far exceeded anything we could have hoped to have found here at home.  The Div 1 workouts that Harrison received took him to a whole new level that will help him enormously as he goes into his senior year in high school.  Coaches Mike and Patrick were fantastic in their ability to get the most out of Harrison …. knowing when to push and when to hold back…and always providing positive encouragement and motivation.  Carolina Courts is a gold mine for basketball training and if we lived there our son would be training with your facility on a regular basis.  We hope to have Harrison return to your facility in the future and we have also been telling people back home here that if they want some serious bball training then Carolina Courts is the place to go…it’s worth the travel!

If there is anything that you happen to think of that might be of benefit to Harrison….camps, teams, or anything else…we would be very appreciative if you could let us know….where possible we do what we can to help him along.

You and your entire staff were amazing…thank you for a really positive experience and all the best to you as you move forward in expanding/moving the facility.”

“Coach Dave,

Thanks so much for all the time you spent working with me. I know at first I didn’t want to come but I’m glad I came and stuck with our workouts. Tearing my ACL was definitely one of the hardest things I’ve gone through and without working out with you up at Carolina Courts there is no way I’d be able to play soccer this season. When we started I could barely run, let alone change directions and cut. Now I have so much more mobility and strength in my knee as well as confidence that it will hold up while I’m out on the field. Thanks for pushing me to work hard and reach my goals.”
