Small Group Workouts – VJBL Players only
“Make success inevitable”
The Wyndham Small Group Workouts provides an intimate environment where current VJBL players will be provided the greatest opportunities to enhance their skill set and learn how to apply those skills within game settings. With groups capped at 6:1 player to coach ratio per session, the level of teaching and feedback will provide each athlete the chance to rapidly grow their game.
The program is managed by Wyndham Coaching Lead, Lucas Allen and predominantly coached by Wyndham Assistant Coaching Leads Amanda Paschal and Zoe Zwerling. The experience and success each of these coaches has will provide each athlete the opportunity to develop their game in an environment that is unmatched.
Lucas has extensive experience and has seen first hand what it takes for athletes to develop and succeed at the highest of levels, including the NBL, NBA, Olympics and World Cup. That knowledge and experience will be passed down throughout the Small Group Workouts.
Check out below what some athletes that Lucas has coached in the past have had to say;
Throughout my junior basketball career I’d worked continuously with Lucas Allen. When I first started to take basketball seriously, making the decision that I wanted to make a career out of the game, Lucas was a great resource I had access to in helping me improve all facets of my game. Specifically, I recall him always putting together fun, position specific, and challenging workouts that helped me take great strides in my skill development.
He is a person that I have maintained a great relationship with since we first met, catching up every time we cross paths, reflecting how much I respect and appreciate everything he has done for me in my basketball career. He’s been such a positive influence on me, and I’ve always known that he’s had my best interests at heart when constructing sessions that were both highly enjoyable and productive. Having the privilege to work with Lucas is something that I definitely don’t take for granted, and his experience further from the time we’ve worked together closely would have only enhanced the already high expertise he possesses.
– Jack White (NBA Champion with Denver Nuggets & Boomer at the FIBA World Cup)
Personally for me, I wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for Lucas Allen. You know learning the game of basketball from him was an honour for me. He’s a very knowledgeable and smart guy, and he knows the game of basketball very well. I think the most important thing is he’s a great guy. He wants to coach you, he wants you to get better and that’s what you want from a coach.
Personally for me, he’s one that kick started my career. It was a great opportunity to be able to train with Lucas.
– Dyson Daniels (NBA Lottery pick to the New Orleans Pelicans & Boomer at the FIBA World Cup)
I’ve been working with Lucas for the past 2 seasons for the Phoenix. Lucas has an exceptional level of knowledge for the game and has had a lot of impact on the player I am today. I highly recommend Lucas to any basketball player trying to take their game to the next level.
– Reuben Te Rangi (South East Melbourne Phoenix and New Zealand Men’s National Team).
