Parent Testimonials
"Top Performance basketball is a wonderful organization. Our son loves basketball and has been working very hard the past several years to improve his game. He joined Top Performance in April and has improved so much. Coach Jeros cares about the players and really wants them to improve their skills. He has made a huge difference in our son’s life. Our son has improved his game and his confidence blossomed in the few short months he has been playing for Top Performance. It is so nice to see a Coach that wants to help players reach their goals and dreams and be the best player they can be. Coach Jeros not only cares about the kids as players, he cares about them as people. He is always there to help the kids whether it be with a move or with advice on how to handle a situation.
We cannot express the gratitude we have for Coach Jeros and the Top Performance organization. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You have been an outstanding role model to our son. You made a difference and a lasting impression and for that we are forever grateful."

"We absolutely love this program! My son has been playing for Top Performance basketball for the last 3 months. Not only are the workouts helping him achieve skills and knowledge of the game continuous weekend tournaments help instill these principles instinctually.
Jeros is a great coach with great skills running a great program. He instills both practical and advanced skills into players’ and creates a unique situation where the kids not only learn from him but drive one another to get better. All levels benefit from this program. Unlike some AAU programs where the teams are 5 players deep, Jeros gives everyone an opportunity to learn and play. The team as a whole benefits, everyone plays harder knowing doors are open. Top players see it coming and they have no choice but to work harder knowing those potential stars are right on their tails. My son who began Top Performance as a player who had some skills but didn’t have the knowledge and play time has become so much better. Whether or not your son (or daughter) is a star or an average player, I recommend this program."

“When we moved back here from the Philippines, our son wasn’t sure how to fit in or make new friends. We signed him up for another basketball program where we thought he would make some connections and learn more about the sport. Instead, he felt more invisible because it was such a large program and many kids were more advanced so they got more attention from the coaches. It left such a bad taste in our mouths that after the summer session we took a break until our son asked if he could try another program. He heard about Top Performance from a kid at school and we tried it.
I cannot say this more clearly than it has completely changed our son’s life. Once he was given some personal attention from Coach Jeros and the staff, he found confidence, focus, and joy in working hard towards his dream. Many programs either select top talent and focus on the few, or open the door wide and focus on the numbers like a factory. Top Performance develops athletes at any level. Now our son just made the JV high school team as a freshman, where maybe a year ago he was barely playing on the 8th grade team. We are very thankful to have found the right program, the right coach, and the right community for our son to be a part of. "

"Probably like many bay area kids our son started playing basketball in 2015 when Warriors won the first one of their most recent championship streak. He started with a larger youth basketball program but quickly plateaued without making much progress. Luckily we found Top Performance Basketball and Coach Jeros. Our son started quite late with basketball (at the age of 11) compared to other kids and does not necessarily have the perceived basketball talent - I vividly remember the head coach of the other program telling parents that very few kids would have the 7-foot wingspan of Lebron James therefore don't expect too much out of yours.
But at Top Performance, coach Jeros saw talents in every kid as long as they put in the effort. He provides tailored coaching that helps them focus on techniques, physical development, work ethic and team work. After a few months of rigorous training and competitive tournaments we saw progress in our son - not only his basketball skills but also confidence, mental and physical strength. In fall 2018 our son joined a local private high school and made the freshman team, playing point guard of the starting line-up. More importantly he is now a strong, resilient and positive young man with genuine interests and strong work ethic with both sports and academics - he is also a member of the school's cross-country team and a straight-A student.
We cannot thank Top Performance and coach Jeros enough for playing an important role in our son's life getting him where he is right now."
