Private Basketball Coaching
At SWAT Basketball, we specialize in personal basketball coaching designed to develop the skills and attributes athletes need to excel at a high level. Based in Gold Coast, our training sessions are held locally, and we are proud supporters of the Gold Coast Basketball Junior organizations. Our focus is on skill-based training, using advanced techniques to enhance our players' motor skills and coordination. Recognizing the importance of shooting in basketball, we take pride in cultivating strong, consistent shooters. Whether through one-on-one basketball coaching or private coaching sessions, our personal basketball trainers are dedicated to helping each athlete reach their full potential.
The growth of each individual player is our number one goal.
Our coaching philosophy is centered around providing our players with a comprehensive set of skills and strategies to excel on the court. We focus on teaching fundamental techniques such as dribbling, shooting, passing, and defense, along with advanced tactics like playmaking, positioning, and teamwork. Physical conditioning, mental toughness, and sportsmanship are also key components of our training. By instilling a strong work ethic and a deep understanding of the game, we help each player develop their individual talents while contributing to the overall success of the team.
Group Basketball Sessions
We offer group basketball training sessions designed to provide personalized attention while fostering a team environment. These sessions focus on developing fundamental skills, enhancing teamwork, and implementing advanced techniques through interactive drills and game-like scenarios. By maintaining a low coach-to-player ratio, we ensure that each athlete receives individualized instruction and feedback, helping them improve their performance and build strong basketball foundations.

Testimonials
“I began training with Steve Weiland when I was about 10 years old, and in the past 11 years of training with him I have learnt a significant amount of things about the game of basketball that has helped get me to where I am today. Steve saw potential in me when I was very young, and he dedicated his time and effort into developing my on court skills, my basketball IQ and other important aspects of being a successful basketball player. I have had countless individual sessions with Steve, and each time he pushed me to be the best that I could be, and over this time he also developed my mental toughness on court which has been a key factor in competing in state basketball, QBL and now college basketball. Steve is one of the most dedicated coaches I have ever met, and I thank him for shaping the basketball player I am today.”
