Basketball Training in Patchogue, NY

INDOOR CONSISTENCY BY THE GREAT SOUTH BAY

Don't let the crowds at Shorefront Park slow you down.

Patchogue is vibrant and growing, but for a serious basketball player, the bustle can be a barrier. Public courts like Father Tortora Park and Shorefront Park are often overcrowded or weather-beaten by the winds off the bay. X-Factor Basketball Training provides the private, focused environment serious athletes need to escape the noise and get real work done.

We are not a recreational league or a social club. We provide advanced, pro-level instruction for players who have outgrown crowded public parks and are ready to refine their mechanics, footwork, and basketball IQ under the guidance of a current professional.

Why Choose Us


 

Beat the Winter Freeze

Patchogue winters are cold and wet, making outdoor training impossible for months. We provide the climate-controlled consistency you need to keep improving while others are waiting for the snow to melt.

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, not just another volunteer coach from a local youth league.

No Beginners Allowed

We maintain a strict filter to protect the intensity of our gym. We do not accept beginners. You will train alongside other focused athletes who are at an "Advanced 6th Grade" level or higher.

Local Access

Stop fighting for court time at busy public parks. We bring elite-level attention to detail and private facility access right to the Patchogue area, convenient to Sunrise Highway and Route 112.

1-ON-1 COACHING FOR RAIDER HOPEFULS

Private & Semi-Private Training

The "Raiders" culture at Patchogue-Medford is built on toughness and competition. To make the roster and stay on the floor, you need skills that translate to the varsity level. 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 your coach. Led by Xavier Allen, we focus on the "Details" that allow you to execute within a system while maintaining the ability to create for yourself.

We do not rely on scripted drills that look good on social media. 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 in the Patchogue area?

We operate out of dedicated indoor facilities accessible to Patchogue residents. While parks like Father Tortora are great for the community, they are often crowded and weather-dependent. Our indoor locations provide a professional, private environment to work on your game without distractions or interruptions.
 

Do you accept beginners from the local middle schools?

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

How does this differ from local youth leagues?

Youth leagues are excellent for game experience, but they don't teach high-level mechanics. X-Factor is specialized technical training. We focus on individual skill breakdown, correcting form, teaching footwork, and developing IQ, that you simply cannot get during a chaotic team practice.
 

Can you help me prepare for Patchogue-Medford Raiders tryouts?

Yes. This is exactly who we serve. Our training is designed to translate directly to competitive play. We work on the specific skills, consistency, decision-making, and conditioning, that high school coaches look for when building their rotations.
 

Do you offer training for athletes looking to play in college?

Absolutely. With landmarks like St. Joseph's University right in town, many local players have collegiate ambitions. Xavier Allen’s experience as a Collegiate Scoring Leader allows him to provide specific guidance on what it takes to transition from high school to the college game.
 

Is the training schedule flexible for busy students?

Yes. We know Patchogue students are busy with school and extracurriculars. We offer flexible scheduling for our private and semi-private sessions to ensure you can get your reps in without sacrificing your academic commitments.
