| As a professional basketball player, I have subjected myself to a wide range of basketball workouts in the hopes of becoming a better player. Of all the people I've dealt with, J Lloyd's workouts are the best. His workouts are grueling enough for any professional basketball player. Yet, J is skilled enough to modify his training for those who are new to this game that we love so much.

Jared is a hard working young man who has a love for the game of basketball and possesses a very positive attitude. Jared is a constant student of the game, and his thirst to become better as both a player and a coach is commendable. The entire Anaheim Arsenal staff and I have been impressed with his ability to shoot the ball and his work ethic. I can envision Jared being an excellent teacher/coach due to his positive attitude and patience, two characteristics that have serviced him well in his pursuit in becoming a professional basketball player.

His training works on all aspects of the game and his combination of ball handling and shooting drills allows you to take what you learn and use them in the game situations.

His passion for the game motivates his students and his knowledge of the game is only equaled by his desire to see the growth in young men. He has the unique ability to know when to push and when teach. He does not let the kids he trains get away with anything. His workouts are tougher than any trainer in town and unlike a lot of trainers is physically involved in the workout not talking on his phone or sitting on the sidelines(as most trainers do). I have brought many kids to his workouts (although most cannot make it even half way through it) and every parent agrees that there is no better workout. As a trainer he is the best, as a teacher his passion is unmatched and as a role model for my son, he has given him a greater passion for the game and that was more than I could have hoped for. He not only develops skills but instills the love of the game into the people he trains.

Coach Lloyd is responsible for player development and scouting. His energy and ability to communicate have had a tremendous impact on the development of many young basketball players in the Long Beach area. One of Coach Lloyd’s greatest strengths is his ability to not only teach the fundamentals of the game, but to also develop the confidence of young players. In his freshman year at Cabrillo, Deonte Burton became a first team All-Moore League player, and a Top 50 nationally ranked player, under the tutelage of myself and Coach Lloyd. The knowledge and enthusiasm that Coach Lloyd brings will have a positive impact on any player that is able to develop under his guidance. Sincerely, Vadim Malikin Head Coach Long Beach Cabrillo High School 2006-08 Compton Centennial High School 2008-10 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is no doubt that Coach Jared Lloyd is one the most passionate trainers in the Country. I have had the pleasure of working out with Coach Lloyd for the past 5 years. From then to now his relentless and long workouts have helped me improve my game in so many ways. The cool thing about his workouts is he is able to demonstrate how the drills are expected to be done at full speed! Coach Lloyd and his organization will improve you personally and take your basketball skills to the next level. Corey L. Williams Cestistica Ascoli/Italy League D 2008-2009 University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff 2000-2002 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I played basketball with Coach Lloyd in the 2004-2005 season at the college level. During the year Jared showed many quality leadership skills, and a will to win. For as long as I have known Jared he has always done his work both on and off the court to the best of his ability, whether it be leading his college basketball team, or coaching young kids to become great players, or being the best father and husband he can be for his family. I have not also played basketball with Jared, but also have worked alongside of him during some of his basketball camps for kids. The fundamentals and way he teaches basketball is superb compared to many other coaches I have seen in my days.

Considering he was not a basketball player all of his life. He started playing basketball at the age of 11 and at that time it was something that was used to keep him out of trouble. When he started playing basketball, Coach Jared helped him develop his skills better, he also helped him hone in on something that we did not know was there. He not only helped him athletically he also helped him academically. He also helped him develop mentally into a stronger player. When he graduated middle school we wanted Norvel to develop into a better player, so during the summer we decided to give Jared a call and have him train our son 3 days a week. As weeks turned to months we saw an increasing change in the way he played. To this day Jared is still Norvel’s trainer, we also use him for our daughter Chenelle, because of Jared and his training our son is one of the top players in the country, he has attended various camps and is even apart of Team USA and is being recruited by several Division 1 colleges. When ever he has a camp to attend we immediately call Jared to train him. Jared is not only an exceptional coach and trainer, but he is also a very good friend of our family. If any parent were to call us and ask us who we would recommend that can train there child and develop them into an exceptional player we would highly recommend Coach Jared.
