Developing More Than Just Athletes
Our Story and Passion
EMD Basketball & Agility Training was founded to empower youth athletes to elevate their performance and personal growth. Our approach merges sport-specific skills, physical conditioning, and leadership coaching to form disciplined and confident young people who excel in sports and life.
EMD is a place where athletes learn to work, believe, and rise. EMD grew from long nights in the gym, conversations about purpose, and a belief that every kid deserves a chance to unlock their potential.
EMD is really about building something bigger than basketball. It’s about turning a shared passion into a place where kids grow, families connect, and discipline becomes a lifestyle.
Coach Sammie Walker is widely admired for his discipline, mentorship, and deep understanding of player development. He’s known for blending technical precision with motivational leadership, helping athletes not only refine their skills but also strengthen their mindset.
Summer group camp is where energy, discipline, and joy collide. It’s the part of the year when EMD feels the most alive — kids grinding, learning, laughing, and leveling up together. What you and Coach Sammie built isn’t just a camp; it’s a summer experience that sticks with them long after the season ends.
Volleyball program gives players the same structured, high‑impact development we are known for. EMD is not limited to Basketabll and Agility Training. We also train individuals and groups for Volleyball.
Students often describe Coach Sammie Walker with genuine admiration — they say he’s tough but fair, and that his training sessions are transformative both physically and mentally. Many mention how he pushes them to reach their full potential, yet always keeps the atmosphere positive and motivating.
No two players are the same, so their training shouldn’t be either. One‑on‑one sessions allows Individual Skill Mapping, Targeted Improvement Plans and Position - Specific Work along with Agility Training. Which helps build Stronger Confidence and Better Decision Making with Graeter Accounability.
At EMD, every program has a purpose. Whether it’s Summer Camp, Spring Clinic, or an in‑between moment, we are giving athletes a place to grow, compete, and build confidence. Stay in touch for year around programs.
