At Casey Teson Basketball Academy, I teach the game in a way that feels real and personal. I’ve seen players from Saint Peter's find new confidence the moment their skills start to click, and it changes how they walk into the gym and how they carry themselves in life. I want that for your athlete, too. That’s the heart of true basketball coaching, the kind that builds character as much as skill.

I coach with patience, heart, and a clear plan that fits each player. Whether your child dreams of making the team or sharpening skills for bigger goals, I guide them step by step. With focused basketball coaching that meets them where they are, they’ll grow stronger, smarter, and more confident both on and off the court, and you’ll feel proud watching them rise.

I trust Casey completely with basketball training for my son, Luke. He is an excellent teacher, pays attention to detail and cares about him on and off the court. Luke’s growth as a high school basketball player can be attributed directly to the last several years working with Casey.

Casey does a great job of pushing my kids to realize their full potential. He challenges them to improve in the areas they have gaps, and highlights the areas where they are strong. They have become smarter and better players by working with and learning from Coach Teson.

Common Questions About Basketball Coaching

At what age is it best to start basketball coaching?

Most kids can start learning fundamental basketball skills as early as age seven. At that age, a basketball training session focuses on simple ball handling, footwork, and fun basketball drills that help kids enjoy the sport while picking up good habits. As they grow, we add more individual skills like passing, defense, and layups so they feel confident on the court. Every child moves at their own pace, and our basketball trainer adjusts things based on their age and comfort.

Do you work with beginners who have never played basketball before?

Yes, we work with complete beginner players all the time. We start slow, keep things fun, and teach fundamentals like stance, ball control, proper shooting form, and how to move with a purpose. Beginners learn how to play the game the right way through simple drills, short games, and easy decision-making activities that build confidence. Many of our youth players from places like Jefferson City and the surrounding parts of Missouri begin with no experience at all.

Can more advanced basketball players benefit from your training?

Absolutely. Advanced players sharpen their basketball IQ, footwork, scoring moves, defense, and tougher basketball drills that look like real game situations. We break down details that serious players, including those aiming for high school, college, or even dreaming of becoming a professional basketball player, need to master. We cover things like reading the team defense, using angles, passing under pressure, and creating space. Advanced players also love working on new drills that challenge their speed, physical strength, and decision-making.

How long does each basketball training session last?

A typical basketball training session lasts about 45–60 minutes. That gives players enough time for footwork, shooting, ball handling, drills, and some game-like practice without feeling rushed. When we run longer sessions, like during basketball camps in the fall or summer, we mix in more fun camp challenges, team games, and extra reps to help kids develop faster.

How often should my child train each week?

Training two to three times a week is usually the sweet spot. It allows players to work hard, learn fundamentals, and then rest enough to absorb the skills. Whether your athlete wants to make a high school roster, get ready for USA Basketball events, improve for the next season, or simply get better for fun, steady training makes a big difference. More sessions help players build consistency, especially if they’re learning new movements or preparing for tryouts.

Will training help with school or team tryouts?

Definitely. We teach the basketball skills coaches look for: strong footwork, confident layups, good spacing, smart decision making, and how to stay calm under pressure. We use basketball drills that mirror real tryout situations so players know what to expect. Whether they want to shine in youth leagues, girls' or boys' programs, or aim higher toward college play, we help them stand out by focusing on the key things coaches watch for.

Do you offer both group sessions and private training?

Yes, we offer both. Private sessions give more personal attention, perfect for learning tricky scoring moves, building basketball IQ, or fixing shooting form. Group sessions feel more like a mini-camp, with athletes learning teamwork, communication, and how to react quickly during game situations. Both options help players of all skill levels, whether they're just starting or preparing for bigger goals like varsity spots or even dreaming of the NBA one day.

What should my child bring to each session?

All they need is a ball, good shoes, water, and a positive attitude. We bring the rest, the structure, the resources, the drills, and the coaching. If your player already knows their position, we help them sharpen those skills ,too. No matter what, we make sure every athlete feels ready, supported, and excited to join the workout.
