TRIANGLE ELITE SPORTS ACADEMYPLAYER DEVELOPMENT

The work happens between games.

Private and small group basketball training for youth players — built around what your player actually needs, not a generic drill list.

Ages 6 through high school. Fuquay-Varina, Holly Springs, Apex, and Cary.

Coached by someone who has done this at every level.

Most youth trainers can run a drill. Fewer can tell you why your player's shot breaks down under fatigue, or what to fix first when three things need fixing. That judgment comes from years on a bench, not a certification.

Every player starts with an evaluation and leaves with a written plan. You will know what we are working on, why, and what progress should look like.

What an hour actually looks like.

Teaching, correcting, and repeating. Not a workout designed to look impressive on video.

Start with a free evaluation.

Sixty minutes on the court, then a written plan with two or three priorities and a realistic timeline. Parents stay and watch the whole thing. No cost, and no obligation to book anything after it.

Book a time

Book a session.

Private sessions and free evaluations book straight through. Semi-private, small group, and package sessions are arranged by text — send your player's age and the days that work, and you will get times back the same day.

How development works here.

Four stages, in order. You will always know which one your player is in.

1

Free evaluation

We assess ball handling, shooting mechanics, footwork, and athleticism, then sit down and walk you through exactly what we saw.

2

Development plan

You receive a written plan naming two or three priority focus areas and a realistic timeline for improvement.

3

Consistent training

Weekly or twice weekly. This is why packages exist — skills are built through repetition, and one-off workouts do not change how a player moves in a game.

4

Re-assessment

Every eight sessions we re-test and show you measurable progress against the original plan. That is exactly one development block, which is why the 8-pack is priced the way it is.

The practical details.

Where we train

Fuquay Sports Center, 6109 NC-55 South, Fuquay-Varina. Additional gyms across Holly Springs, Apex, and Cary by arrangement.

Scheduling

Sessions are booked directly with Coach Hardy. Text with your player's age and the days that work, and you will get times back the same day.

Cancellations

  • 24 hours notice reschedules at no charge
  • Same-day cancellations use a session
  • Weather and coach cancellations are always rescheduled free

Group programs

Triangle Elite also runs seasonal cohort programs for younger players, including Mini Mites Hoop School for ages 6 to 8. Text to arrange, or call (984) 330-9037.

What parents are saying

"The progress after just a few individual sessions with Coach Hardy have been incredible; Sam's ball handling and finish at the rim are noticeably sharper during his games."
