Mission

Breakout Basketball was created with a mission to provide elite coaching and training to any player who has a passion for the game of basketball and a desire to improve. Our goal is to provide high quality instruction in an encouraging environment where all players can have the opportunity to grow and develop their skills. I have heard it said that “what many call talent is nothing but the capacity for doing continuous hard work in the right way.” Basketball is a beautiful and complex game that takes years to truly learn. The key to progress is sustained effort mixed with consistent quality instruction. We are excited to be able to offer a vital piece of that puzzle.

Testimonials

Why Choose Breakout Basketball?

"This was an absolutely AMAZING experience for my son!! I can't say enough good things about it!! He further developed many skills from shooting to defense. He was so excited at the end of each day to share what he had learned and was enthusiastic to go back each day. But the part I loved best was how Jeff talked to them about perseverance, positive attitude, and good sportsmanship, which is most important!! The assistant coaches had great attitudes and worked so hard! My son has gone to other basketball camps each year and he said this was the best all around!!! Thank you for a great week!! He can't even wait for next summer!!

"Jeff Bretsch and Breakout Basketball are the gold standard when it comes to youth basketball. We have experienced other AAU programs and camps south of Boston and no one else even comes close to the quality of instruction, coaches, and organization you get with Breakout Basketball. Jeff is an incredible person and coach. His positive energy, basketball knowledge and ability to connect with kids is second to none."

Wonderful week of camp. The director, Jeff Bretsch is just absolutely amazing. The other coaches were great too. All the children LOVE this camp. They learn so much and have such a great time. My son did this camp and the camp for the rising sixth graders at the wolves den which Jeff Bretsch also ran and again, it was a fabulous experience. If you know someone who likes basketball, this camp and the skills session in the fall would be for them. High energy camp and such a positive camp for all skill levels. Look it up. You will love it!!!

Having Coach Bretsch lead gives you a guarantee that your child is being coached and/or taught by someone of high character, a person of great detail, who knows the X's & O's......but even more importantly teaches things beyond the court. He was the ultimate teammate as a player on the NCAA Division 3 level, who continually worked to develop his craft. Even then, his understanding of the game was beginning to shine through. Now, with 18 years worth of High School experience, he went from perfecting his craft as a player to teaching players how to do the same!

​I can't thank you enough for all of your efforts in making this week's basketball camp such an outstanding experience for the boys. Not only did you teach them so many basketball fundamentals, but you taught them important life lessons. When our son walked in that first day, he was nervous and unsure of himself. When he walked out the door today, he was smiling and brimming with confidence. I can't thank you enough for that! It was a wonderful experience for him and he will definitely be back next year. I'm also telling everyone I know about your fabulous camp!
