Basketball Training in East Hampton, NY

ELITE SKILL DEVELOPMENT NEAR NEWTOWN LANE

Don't let the winter freeze at Herrick Park stall your game.

East Hampton demands excellence in every aspect of life, and basketball is no exception. But when the temperature drops to 21°F and the courts at Herrick Park or Springs Youth Association are unplayable, serious development often hits a wall. While the East Hampton Bonackers are battling through tight varsity matchups against Westhampton and the "Killer Bees," independent skill work cannot stop. X-Factor Basketball Training provides the elite, year-round environment serious athletes need to maintain their edge.

We are not a summer camp for tourists. We provide advanced, pro-level instruction for players who are ready to separate themselves from the competition and refine their mechanics, footwork, and basketball IQ under the guidance of a current professional.

Why Choose Us


 

Beat the Winter Decline

With snow on the ground and freezing temps from December to March, outdoor training is impossible. We provide the climate-controlled consistency you need to avoid skill regression during the critical varsity season.

Professional Pedigree

You are training with Xavier Allen, a NY State scoring leader and active pro. This is mentorship rooted in real high-level experience, teaching you the nuances required to compete against top-tier League opponents.

No Beginners Allowed

We respect the competitive standard of the "Bonackers." We do not accept beginners. You will train alongside other motivated, competitive athletes who are at an "Advanced 6th Grade" level or higher.

Concierge Training Options

We understand the value of time in East Hampton. While our main hub is in Quogue, we offer premium "travel-to-you" options for clients with private indoor facilities, ensuring elite training fits your schedule.

1-ON-1 COACHING FOR VARSITY HOPEFULS

Private & Semi-Private Training

The "Bonacker" culture is steeped in pride, but winning tight games against rivals like Westhampton requires individual brilliance within the team concept. Our Private and Semi-Private training is designed to build the specific assets, shooting consistency, ball-handling under pressure, and defensive IQ, that make you indispensable to a varsity coach. Led by Xavier Allen, we focus on the "Details" that allow you to execute under the bright lights of a Section XI playoff game.

We do not rely on scripted drills. We work on game-transferable skills that hold up against physical defenses.
 

Our Focus Areas Include:
 

• Elite Footwork & Balance:

Learning to operate efficiently in tight spaces, mirroring the mechanics Xavier uses against pro competition.


• Game-Speed Shot Creation:

Moving beyond stationary shooting to master spacing, pace, and creating your own shot off the dribble.


• Basketball IQ & Decision Making:

Understanding why to make a move, not just how. We teach you to see the floor like a pro.


• Defensive Mechanics:

Advanced positioning and agility work to ensure you can guard the best player on the opposing team.


• Mentorship:

Honest feedback on what it takes to succeed, from a trainer who currently navigates the professional basketball landscape.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where exactly do you train? Is it in East Hampton?

My primary, consistent training location is Sportime in Quogue, which serves as the central hub for high-level training. However, if you have access to a high-quality private indoor gym or wish to book a facility in East Hampton, I can travel to you.
 

What are the fees if you travel to my private gym or Sportime Amagansett?

If you require me to travel to East Hampton (e.g., to your home gym or a rented facility), there will be an additional gas fee and an overall higher price for labor to account for the travel time. If you prefer the standard rate, you must come to the Quogue location.
 

Do you accept beginners from East Hampton Middle School?

No. I maintain a strict standard to ensure the quality of training. Athletes must be at an "Advanced 6th Grade" level or higher with prior competitive experience. I am best suited for players looking to excel in travel, school, or collegiate basketball.
 

How does this differ from the summer camps at Sportime Amagansett?

Summer camps are generally designed for volume, fun, and mass participation. X-Factor provides personalized mentorship. I focus on your specific mechanical breakdowns and basketball IQ, offering a level of detail and individual attention that is impossible to achieve in a large camp setting.
 

Can you help me prepare for the Bonackers varsity season?

Yes. This is exactly who I serve. The Bonackers face tough competition from Westhampton and Bridgehampton. I work on the specific skills, consistency, decision-making, and conditioning, that varsity coaches look for when building a winning rotation.
 

Do you offer training for summer residents?

Yes. I understand the population shift in East Hampton. If you are a serious athlete visiting for the season, I can provide the high-intensity maintenance work needed to ensure you return to your home team sharp. You can travel to Quogue or book a travel session.
