TESTIMONIALS

"Dewey Burke is an outstanding teacher of the game of basketball. I first met Dewey three years ago when he gave a clinic for my son’s AAU team. I was instantly impressed not only by Dewey’s knowledge and love of the game, but the manner in which he instructs and the gravitational pull he has with young people - they actually listen to him! I was so impressed that I brought Dewey in to do a clinic for my son’s travel team the following fall. The drills, the life lessons, the practice plan for the day - the team, and many of the parents who stayed to watch, they all loved it.

To prepare for high school tryouts this year, the decision was easy - two months of workouts with Dewey. Ball handling, shooting fundamentals, and perhaps most importantly - the mental mindset to take on a challenge and succeed, Dewey is tops.

My son is a much better player, and much better person, for working with Dewey." -John Mitchell, King of Prussia, PA

"Training with Dewey Burke not only gave my son the much needed skills and conditioning to play basketball at the high school level, it instilled confidence in him that I have never seen. Knowing he has the techniques t o improve his shooting and his game in general, my son is able to compete at a higher level while producing real results at game time." Nancy Follman, King of Prussia, PA

"My son has been in clinics and individual sessions with Dewey. What really impresses me about Dewey is that, although my son has been on many teams and been to a lot of different basketball camps, Dewey teaches the boys on a different level. He has an unusually deep knowledge of the game. The boys are taught many fine points about skills and have their repertoire of tactics expanded. He also designs drills to drive home certain fundamental principles, such as the importance of defensive positioning and moving without the ball on offense. He spurs their competitive spirits in a straightforward, healthy way. He has a very steady demeanor (no screaming, for example). I also especially like how he tries to teach them them the right general approach to the game - demanding that they think about it, that they show leadership on the floor, and so forth. He also plan his sessions carefully, down to the minute, and makes very good use of the time." - Dan Blickman, Philadelphia, PA

"My son has worked out with Dewey in his summer camps, groups session, and individual sessions. I've seen improvement in his shooting and ball handling ability. Dewey coaches with a no-nonsense, but encouraging style that kids naturally respond to. It's rewarding to know my son is getting the knowledge from someone who has played at the highest collegiate level." - Dr. A. Scott McNeal, Collegeville, PA
