Carolyn Latu
"After enrolling my sons in a DRIVE holiday camp and observing their improvement in skill and attitude towards basketball, it was obvious that they would receive the best training from DRIVE."
Barry-Allan Meppelink
"As a father, I selected the DRIVE program because it provided my sons a chance to play basketball with the best players in the province. But even more so, the program gives every player an opportunity to handle the ball and improve."
Mark Scott - Father of Ethan Scott (Gr. 5 @ Collingwood)
"Ethan has attended Drive Holiday and Spring camps and I’ve been very impressed with the quality of the instruction and the sincere interest in the kids. It also doesn’t hurt that they are among the premier University players in the country. The environment they have created for the kids is extremely positive and I would strongly recommend this program to any parents who are interested in having their children participate in a fun, competitive and challenging atmosphere."

Ethan Scott is a Jr.Drive Standout and former Hoops & Beyond Most Outstanding Player (2006).
Greg Chambers - Father of Stephanie Chambers (Gr. 7 @ Emily Carr Elementary)
"I was VERY impressed with Drive!!! Having been to other camps, I expected the same routine of monotonous drills and the occasional scrimmage. What my daughter received however was totally different.

The coaches were experienced, knowledgeable, organized and passionate. Each coach knew every player personally and their level of skills. Drive focused on my daughter as a COMPLETE player by working on her athletic conditioning, ball handling, offensive and defensive skills. I'd recommend Drive to any parent who wants a totally fun, positive and supportive camp experience for their child."

Stephanie Chambers is a Jr.Drive Standout along with recieving a Hoops & Beyond Scholarship award ($400) in 2006.
K. Bradshaw and M. Rohla - Parents of James and Thomas Bradshaw (Gr.7 and 9)
"Our boys have been fortunate to be a part of the Drive movement for 2 years now. They have benefitted from 3 Drive Universities and summer and spring week-long camps. Drive has turned them into true athletes thanks to the dynamic warm-up and Coach Isaac's core training & nutritional education.

They have had the pleasure of experiencing a variety of enthusiastic, excellent coaches each with their own strengths, expertise & love of the game. Coaches Chad & Pasha have both made the extra effort to "get inside their heads" and have used positive motivation to push them to be better, more confident players. The player evaluations have been accurate, inspiring the boys to work hard on parts of their games that need work. Most importantly, the mentorship Drive coaches provide has been invaluable to our sons by inspiring them to be better on the court and in the classroom."

James Bradshaw (Drive University 06 All-Star) and Thomas Bradshaw (Drive Univeristy NIT MOP) are mainstays of the Drive Basketball program.
Bob and Mary-Jo Ohl - Parents of Josie Ohl (Gr. 12 @ Lord Tweedsmir)
"Thanks to DRIVE Basketball, our daughter, Josie, regained her confidence on the court. Your course is an excellent blend of conditioning, skills, information, games and encouragement. We felt that you knew Josie as an individual, not just a number! The coaches at DRIVE are knowledgeable, fun, dedicated and kind - an awesome combination of qualities and people. Josie look forward to participating in future camps! Thanks, DRIVE!"

Elle Kerfoot - Under 15 & 17 Provincial team member (Gr. 12 # Elgin Park Secondary)
"Drive was awesome. I enjoyed coming every Saturday and Sunday and just playing, it was awesome to be coached by these guys. My game improved a lot. I didn't only improve skill wise but it made me closer to the game. I just want to be playing all the time now, I always have the ball in my hand now. It just made me think about how important basketball really is."

Lucian Sauciac - Centennial (TRU: DRIVE University Fall '05 MVP)
"I thought Drive without a doubt was the best camp I have gone to. During the 5 weeks, I made huge progressions in my game and all the coaches did a phenomenal job of teaching and encouraging the players.

The attitude and atmosphere at the camp was always so positive and it made it an awesome basketball environment to learn from some of Canada's bests. Isaac did an unbelievable job with the dynamic warm up and I think every player there got better."

Lucian Sauciac is one of the 3 Drive University MVPs to recieve an athletic scholarship to University.
