Coach

Kaylyn

My basketball journey began in elementary school and expanded to teams like the Scarborough Blues, Durham City Chameleons, Titans and the All Saints Catholic Public School team, culminating in participation at LOSSA and OFSAA. I’ve received several awards, including, winning LOSSA, Most Improved Player, Best Defensive Player, and MVP on my high school team, reflecting my dedication and commitment to the sport. As a coach, I find joy in training young athletes and seeing them succeed. Their kindness and enthusiasm bring a fresh perspective, reminding me of the simple joys of the game and why it has been a passion of mine.

My name is Nathan Calkins, and I've been playing basketball since I was a kid. I played in college and learned a lot about the game along the way. Now, my goal is to help players improve their skills and confidence on the court.

Adminstrative Assistant

Jacinta

Hi! I'm Jacinta, I take care of many of the admin side of things for ALevelUp. My favourite part of this job is getting to send out our Birthday Posts in the team Whatsapp chats. Getting to be apart of a program that not only teaches young athletes about basketball but about how to be a good person is truly rewarding.

When I am not working, you can find me reading or baking treats with my son.

Did you know that ALevelUp is partnered with the Canadian Tire Jumpstart program. Which mean you can apply for a child grant to play ball with us!

ALevelUp is also apart of Our Kids Trust Source. Our Kids give parents the clarity and confidence they need to make the right choice for their child’s future. Programs with Our Kids is vetted through them so you know you are putting your child in the right program.

"Without our team , AlevelUP Basketball training would not be where we are or able to overcome, or deliver exceptional programming. The team is packed with exceptional leaders, who have a passion for youth skill development and display exemplary character. These individuals come together and rise to above level standards and actions to take this company and all athlete's AlevelUP! I am truly grateful and privileged to work along side these extraordinary people."
