KENNETH BATES
Founder of LAABWORK
Kenneth Bates, founder and developer of the LAABWORK training system, is the most sought after professional in the world of basketball training and player development. While attending college on a baseball scholarship, Kenneth graduated with a B.S. in Physical Education (focus in Kinesiology) and a minor in Adolescent Psychology.
An extensive background in various sports, Kinesiology (human movement) and youth psychology provides Kenneth a unique insight into the minds and bodies of athletes - whether they are young children just starting out or professionals. Most importantly, Kenneth understands that optimum results can only be achieved by developing the whole player - mentally, physically and emotionally. LAABWORK takes pride in watching it's players improve while simultaneously developing the character, morals, respect, confidence and self-discipline required to excel in sports and life. Through intense preparation and realistic goal-setting, I motivate, inspire, and develop my athletes into successful stars.
