Prolific Basketball offers comprehensive individual and group training programs for professional young players in Carlsbad and San Marcos area to improve their game and skillset to match up to junior high, and varsity/high school levels. Our programs and training sessions are designed by Tony Laguna, 20 years coach at San Marcos High School and Coastal Elite Basketball Club.
Tony Laguna attended and played for San Marcos High School until he graduated in 1995, and currently serves as assistant varsity coach for the girls' and boys' teams under head coaches Roger DiCarlo and Dante Carey.
While we consider that athletes can reach college and professional status through hard work and perseverance, we believe that education is the foundation upon which success stories are built.
"I believe that being a part of our basketball team is an opportunity and an experience that should impact the young athletes’ lives in every area and help them realize and seize their full potential as young women. There is no shortcut to hard work and nothing will be given to them. They will need to strive daily to maximize their talents and impact their surroundings in a positive way. Honest communication and collective responsibility will help guide their decisions and each of them will serve their role to the best of their ability. By developing faith, trust, communication, gratitude, and collective responsibility they will prepare and compete like champions, striving for excellence in the classroom, the community, and on the court."
- Coach Tony
