He is committed to the players he works with, committed to his craft, and committed to becoming the best coach and person he can become. A lot of people work hard, but few can match Phil’s relentless commitment to the game of basketball." Mark Daigneault, Head Coach - Oklahoma City Thunder “The addition of Phil Beckner to our Junior National Team coaching staff has been terrific. He has added more clarity to our evolving coaching and player development program. His ability to communicate effectively with athletes and coaches as well as teach with precision is outstanding. Samson Kayode, USA Basketball “There is no one I respect more when it comes to teaching the basketball skills necessary to become an elite player. Phil creates an environment in his workouts that mirror high level competition necessary for the player to reach his potential. Great players appreciate that!” Fran Fraschilla, ESPN What college coaches are saying... “Phil Beckner’s skill as a teacher is elite! His basketball prowess speaks for itself, but his ability to develop guys emotionally and mentally is the separator. His focus on total development, not just basketball skill development is what has led to the success of the guys he has worked with.” Buzz Williams, Texas A&M “Phil is a terrific teacher of the game of basketball and a master of player development. He has innovative training techniques and a passion to make people better. I look forward to continuing to follow Phil’s relentless commitment to positively impacting our game.” Bobby Hurley, Arizona State "Coach Beckner has as a unique talent to evaluate players strengths and weaknesses and then develop a plan to help them reach their full potential. Players trust Phil because he understands the importance of having strong, honest, and genuine relationships with each kid and because of that he is able to get the most out of them. He is definitely the best development coach I have ever been around." Randy Rahe, Weber State.
