A LITTLE ABOUT ME...
My name is ish sanders
Basketball has been my passion for well over 25 years. I grew up loving this game, and in return, it has taken me on an incredible journey. I was able to get a scholarship to a DII school (Carson-Newman University), where I had the opportunity to make the history books, with some of my records still standing today. My collegiate career then paved the way for me to become a professional athlete, playing in various leagues across the world, including Australia, Spain, and Iceland.
Throughout my career, I've been recognized for my scoring ability, leadership, and dedication on the court. I've won multiple MVP awards, set quiet a few shooting records, and made countless memories along the way. But what truly drives me is the chance to share my passion and my expertise with others. My greatest achievement is helping others unlock their potential and push themselves in a way that transforms their skills. I know the challenges and triumphs that come with mastering the game, and I am here to help you navigate your own path.
My individual and group training sessions, as well as my camps and clinics, are designed for athletes seeking hands-on, in-person instruction to refine their skills. My virtual programs offer the flexibility to fit seamlessly into your busy schedule while equipping you with the tools and confidence to excel on the court. Together, we’ll work to take your game to the next level and help you reach your full potential!
