Build the player your child is meant to be.
You already know your child has more in them. The hard part is knowing what to work on next, and most basketball parents are guessing.
In 60 minutes on the floor, Coach Green shows you exactly where your child is, what’s holding them back, and what to work on next. You walk away with a comprehensive player report that’s yours to keep, plus a 15-minute call to talk through what it means.
The Player Evaluation. Your investment is $147. That’s less than most parents spend on two private training lessons aimed at the wrong problem.
And if the evaluation and follow-up call don’t give you a clearer picture of your child’s game than you walked in with, I’ll refund every dollar. Just email me. – Coach Green
The system behind the outcomes. We call it C.F.F.C.
C.F.F.C. is how every Lee Green Basketball player is built, in the order a house gets built.
Clearing the land first: confidence, mindset, the mental work that makes everything above it stand up.
Foundation next: shooting, ball handling, footwork, finishing, defense, the skills the whole structure rests on.
Framing on top: basketball IQ, reads, decisions under pressure, the shape of the player.
Conditioning to weatherproof it: sport-specific durability so the build holds in the fourth quarter.
One weak pillar is all it takes to expose your player in a real game.
The evaluation diagnoses which pillar is exposed. C.F.F.C. is how we fix it.
Who's actually doing the coaching.
Coach Lee Green. Founder of Lee Green Basketball Academy. 21 years coaching girls and boys basketball in DFW.
More than 1,260 player evaluations since 2005.
The players who’ve come through this gym have gone on to start on varsity, make varsity as freshmen, and sign college scholarships.
I coached my own son from his first dribble to a Division I scholarship at Texas A&M.
Same system. Same standards. Same hours on the floor.
What I did at home is what I do here.
If you want a coach who has built a player at the highest level, and is building them in DFW right now, that’s me.
Where we train.
Denton Guyer High School, Denton, TX.
We work with families from Denton, Lewisville, Flower Mound, Frisco, Coppell, Argyle, Little Elm, Lake Dallas, Prosper, Southlake, across the DFW metro and Oklahoma.
You're not deciding whether to invest in your player. You already are.
You're deciding which investment finally answers the question you keep asking.
Book the eval first. Then spend the next dollar with a plan.
The parents who book this eval have usually already spent money trying to answer it.
They’ve paid for trainers. Driven to tournaments.
Asked the school coach. Watched the YouTube videos.
Waited a season to “see how things shake out.” None of those are wrong.
They’re aimed at a different problem than the one you actually have.
Here’s what each one does, and what it doesn’t.
1. A different trainer, or more private lessons. Most parents pick a trainer the way they pick a barber, by reputation and price-per-hour.
The trainer runs your player through their drill menu. The drills might be good.
But nobody started by asking what does this specific player need right now, and in what order?
You can pay for 40 hours of training aimed at the wrong thing.
The eval is what tells you which 40 hours actually move the needle.
2. More AAU games. More showcases. More tournaments. Exposure is not development. Reps without diagnosis is just rehearsing the same gaps in front of more people.
If your player isn’t being picked up at the level you expected, the tournament schedule is not the lever, the gap between what they show on tape and what college coaches are filtering for is the lever.
The eval tells you which one of those gaps is the actual blocker.
3. Asking the school coach. School coaches are good people running a team.
Their job is the roster, not your kid.
They will not pull you aside and give you the honest read on what your player needs in the offseason, they don’t have the time, and in a lot of cases they don’t have the incentive.
You need someone whose only job in that hour is your player.
4. YouTube and working out alone. Free. Accessible. Aimed at the wrong problem.
The internet is full of drills. It contains zero diagnosis.
Your player will do the drill that looks fun, not the one that closes their biggest gap.
A motivated kid working on the wrong thing for six months is the most common pattern we see walk into this eval.
5. “They’ll figure it out” / wait and see. This is the default, and it’s the most expensive of all of them.
The freshman-varsity window is roughly 18 months wide.
The kids who make that jump didn’t figure it out somebody told them, by 7th or 8th grade, exactly what to work on.
Every month you wait is a month you’re not using.
Every option above is a delivery vehicle for development.
The eval is the diagnosis that tells you which vehicle to get into, and what to do once you’re in it.
Book the eval first. Then spend the next dollar with a plan.
Parents who chose us. Kids who earned the outcome.
Parents of boys and girls, from 3rd grade to varsity, here’s what they say after a year, three years, six years with Coach Lee.
“From a talented but timid girl a few years ago, my daughter signed her national letter of intent to play at St. Mary’s University in Texas. It would have never happened but for Coach Green.”
“My daughter joined the Lee Green program several years ago as we were looking for a program committed to player development on and off the court.
I have recommended this program to many people, it has been a hugely impactful program.
As I have watched the steep progress made by my daughter and the other players, I am impressed.
But equally important: Coach Green is a great motivator and helps his teams build character and responsibility.
From a talented but timid girl a few years ago, my daughter signed her national letter of intent to play at St. Mary’s University in Texas. It would have never happened but for Coach Green.
If there were 10 stars I would have given this program a 10 star review.”
~ Herbert Hughes, Argyle, TX — Parent of Bella, 11th grader
“Tears in eyes KNEW we were in the right place.”
“Coach Green came very highly recommended, and from our very first skills session with him, we knew we were in the right place.
Tears in eyes KNEW we were in the right place. Coach Green knows basketball.
His tips and drills are innovative and productive, and he takes the time to show how each drill relates to real game play.
But time spent on the court with Coach Green is about so much more than basketball.
His focus on positive thinking and a persevering mindset is what sets him apart. He is truly focused on developing the whole child, on and off the court.
Coaching with Coach Green is an investment that will reap dividends in a happy, healthy, strong-minded kid.
That’s really good at basketball. So grateful our path crossed with Coach Green. It’s a game changer / LIFE changer.”
~ Karen McLamb, Argyle, TX — Parent of William, 5th grader
“Her confidence has boosted tremendously and handling the ball has significantly improved.”
“Coach Green and his team are absolutely amazing. When my daughter started playing ball with Coach Green, she had zero confidence in herself and her ball handling skills were still a struggle. Her confidence has boosted tremendously and handling the ball has significantly improved. I highly recommend Coach Green.”
~ Karen Goodman, Krum, TX — Parent of Addison, 8th grader
“Coach Green’s program has transformed the way my son plays and thinks about basketball.”
“Coach Green’s program has transformed the way that my son plays and thinks about basketball. He has grown so much as a player and as a leader on the court.
Coach Green is very passionate about teaching kids the game of basketball and how to excel. He and the other coaches help the kids improve not only in basketball but with life skills as well.”
~ Keesha Weaver, Denton, TX — Parent of Preston, 9th grader
“Our son has improved tremendously on his ball handling and defense.”
“Coach Lee Green has been a great leader and mentor for our son. Lee Green focuses on a player’s development while setting high standards of commitment for every player.
His skills and training are outstanding. Our son has improved tremendously on his ball handling and defense.”
~ Ana Ortuno, Carrollton, TX — Parent of Junior, 7th grader

Step 3: Not ready to invest yet? Start with the free guide.
The Parent Player Development Guide ~ free PDF.
A 6-page guide for basketball parents, what to say (and not say) on the car ride home, the 4-step cycle that turns drill work into a real game, three live-test environments you can create this week.
Written by Coach Green.
No upsell hiding inside. Just the guide.
Questions parents ask before they book.
No. The eval is structured so your player is doing the work, not performing under a spotlight.
Two coaches is what lets us run the drill and watch the read at the same time, one is moving them through stations, the other is taking notes on what their body is telling us.
Within ten minutes your player has stopped thinking about being watched and started thinking about the work.
We’ve done this 1,260+ times. We know how to set a kid at ease.
No, and the parents who bring younger players are usually the most surprised by what they learn.
At 8 or 9 we’re not grading skills against a college standard, we’re identifying habits, body mechanics, and confidence patterns that get harder to fix the longer they stay in.
The earlier you know what your player is already doing well and what they’re quietly reinforcing, the cheaper the fix is.
We’ve evaluated players as young as 7.
No. The eval stands on its own.
You get the 60 minutes, the written report, and the follow-up call with Coach Green whether you ever spend another dollar with us or not.
Plenty of families book the eval, take the report back to their current trainer or club, and use it as a roadmap there.
We’re fine with that. If our program ends up being a fit for what your player needs, we’ll tell you. If it isn’t, we’ll tell you that too.
A ranked read of your player’s current strengths and growth areas across five categories, shooting, ball handling, finishing, mindset, and basketball IQ.
Specific observations, not generic praise.
A development priority for the next 90 days. And the C.F.F.C. pillar diagnosis, which of the four is currently the weakest link and what to do about it.
The report is built to be useful to whoever your player works with next, not just to us.
Coach Green is actively involved with every evaluation personally.
The 15-minute follow-up call afterwards is Coach Green one-on-one with the parent.
Nothing about this product gets handed off.
Families drive in from Frisco, Plano, McKinney, Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, and across the Red River from Oklahoma.
The eval is 60 minutes on the court plus the report and the follow-up call. If you’re already spending Saturdays driving to tournaments, this is the most useful 60 minutes you’ll spend that month.
If the drive doesn’t make sense for your family, we’d rather you not book, there are good coaches in every metro and we’d rather refer you to one than waste your Saturday.
Because you are not buying an hour.
You are buying a diagnosis, a written report you keep, and a 15-minute call with the coach who built the system that produced it.
The cheapest version of this is no version of this, a trainer charging $60/hour with no diagnosis is a more expensive purchase, because you’ll buy 30 of them aimed at the wrong thing.
If the eval and the follow-up call don’t give you a clearer picture of your player’s game than you walked in with, we refund every dollar.
A training session is delivery, drills, reps, a coach walking your player through work.
A clinic is volume, a roster of kids running through a curriculum.
The eval is none of those. It’s an hour of assessment.
The output isn’t a sweaty kid, it’s a written plan.
Most families book one eval a year and use the report to direct everything else they’re spending money on for the next twelve months.
You get the written report within 72 hours and the 15-minute follow-up call with Coach Green within the same week.
From there, three paths. Some families take the report and run with it on their own.
Some plug into our Skills Vault to keep eyes on the work between in-person sessions.
Some bring their player into our in-person training.
We tell you in the follow-up call which one fits, and if none of them do, we tell you that too.
Watch this short, inspiring video about Coach Green’s testimony.
Coach Green has an impressive basketball background. He played four years of varsity basketball and later attended Allegany Community College, where he helped lead his team to the Junior College National Championship game.
He then continued his college career at the University of North Texas, where he played his final two years and helped turn the basketball program into a winning program.
After graduating from the University of North Texas, Coach Green tried out for the NBDL, which at the time served as the NBA’s minor league. He later went on to play semi-professionally in Las Vegas.
In 2006, Coach Green founded the Lee Green Basketball Program, where he continues to use his experience and passion to develop athletes both on and off the court.
