Frequently Asked Questions

How do the programs work?

All you need to do is sign up by contacting us. Then pay for the one-time sessions or groups or team sessions. Prolific Basketball's training programs are designed to complement the needs of professional young and teenage girls, regardless of their age or skill level. While we focus on the most important aspects regarding technique and game psychology that translate into better performance, we also emphasize other equally important facets like physical preparation, injury risk reduction, faster recovery, and moral support.

Why choose Prolific Basketball?

We believe that the guidance of high school Coach Tony is essential for ensuring that young players develop a healthy appreciation for the game in an environment that nurtures both individual effort and teamwork. We are located in San Marcos and we built up numerous professional basketball players who have gotten scholarships at colleges.

Tony Laguna has extensive experience helping athletes as a coach at San Marcos High School and the Coastal Elite Basketball Club.

Who are the programs designed for?

Prolific Basketball's programs are customized and designed by Coach Tony Laguna to help athletes hone their skills and achieve a higher level of gameplay aiming for a collegiate or pro career. Training is available for girls in one-on-one or group sessions, grades 5 & 6, 7 & 8, JV, and Varsity. The 1 on 1 training is available for anyone, no matter age or gender.

Is 1-on-1 training available?

While basketball is a team sport, every cohesive group is comprised of individuals with particular needs and specific aspects of their game that they seek to develop or build upon.

Prolific Basketball aims to help athletes that want to improve their performance through 1-on-1 training sessions with Coach Tony Laguna, who has been assisting up-and-coming basketball players for more than 20 years.

Do you provide customized programs?

We provide customized individualized training and we recognize that each player and group has unique strengths and drawbacks that may require fine-tuning. Coach Tony Laguna leverages his years of experience to help athletes and teams get to their next level.

What should players NOT bring to training?

Aside from obvious dangerous and/or illegal objects or substances, we also ask our players to refrain from bringing any devices that could distract their or their team mate's attention during training sessions, including (but not limited to) smartphones, cameras, tablets, laptops, or bluetooth speakers.

Improving on the court doesn't require any flash, only attention to detail and effort, and the only things that Prolific Basketball players need to up their game are comfortable shoes, athletic gear, and a water bottle.

What happens if there's extreme weather or emergencies?

Prolific Basketball emphasizes safety above all. We ask parents and players to do the same and remain informed on adequate safety precautions and conduct during unforeseen emergencies like earthquakes or rapidly advancing wildfires.

Training may be canceled in the aftermath of such events or during extreme weather or high temperatures. If such instances are foreseeable, Prolific Basketball will endeavor to inform parents and players regarding training cancellations via text or email.

How much does training cost?

Prolific Basketball's program fees vary depending on the training format that players sign up for. Group training consisting of 5 to 10 players is $25 per session, and 1-on-1 training with Coach Tony Laguna is $45 per session.

Players (grades 7 and above) can also join our club teams, with training scheduled 3 to 5 times a week in two-hour sessions for $220 per month.

Do you have boys club teams?

Unfortunately, we do not offer club teams for boys at the moment. We are committed to expanding our programs for female basketball players, and our focus is on helping female athletes improve by providing them with training and developmental opportunities.

When and how long are each of the training sessions?

After you pass the tryouts, you will have to commit to team practices at least twice a week. We hold 3–5 practices each week, with each session lasting for 2 hours. This intensive training schedule allows every player to develop individually while developing team cohesion as well.

Do you provide additional resources for parents/guardians of athletes in your club teams?

Yes. We understand that parental support is an important factor in developing a great athlete. Aside from improving your child's potential, our program includes helping parents navigate the world of basketball. We will guide parents and guardians through providing adequate emotional and moral support so that your child can thrive.

Can I attend club sessions with my teammates?

For training with an already existing team, we offer a Group Training program. However, if you want to play with your friends or teammates in our club teams, each individual must pass tryouts separately. Please register for our free tryouts here.

Do I need prior basketball experience to join a club team?

Our club teams look for young female players who want to develop their abilities further. To be able to join a team, you must pass tryouts, which means you should have prior experience as a basketball player. For new athletes, we offer 1-on-1 training and group training programs to hone your skills and knowledge.
