“Advantage creation is the most important skill in modern basketball. In our first year using the conceptual offense, our players’ ability to create, keep, and convert advantages was integral to winning our first state title".

“Since running the Conceptual Offense, our players have improved decision making, reduced turnovers, and created more efficient shots—leading to our first championship in nine years.”

“In just 6 months, the Youth Conceptual Offense helped us win multiple national titles and both senior Big V Championships.”

"The Conceptual Offense provides a unique advantage over any other philosophy because it is unpredictable and virtually unscoutable."

"I wouldn't necessarily call myself a contrary, but when I first started coaching, I always felt there might be a better way. I found that better way when I adopted a conceptual offense and I know it is a big reason why we won a state title — the first in our school's history."
2023 Idaho Girls 4A State Championship
Nick Browder
"My 1st year using CLA and the conceptual offense and our 1st year in our state's largest classification. We lost the 7A Championship to Hoover (5 straight state titles), but it's been a great system offensively and defensively and it's just the beginning!"

The Conceptual Offense course is just absolutely tremendous. I've done both parts of that, so the introductory course and then the full course. I found that was a really effective way of doing it, to get a quick overview.

Running a conceptual offense has helped both me and my players in our ability to create advantages and get really high value shots within our offense.
