Ishwar Bhati’s Coaching Philosophy
#

Ishwar ignited the passion for basketball admired by his coach himself. The ideology of being “firm in the basics and smooth with the finals” has pushed boundaries for his students to reach nationals. In 15 years of his professional experience, he has managed to develop a core liking for the sport in his school, ITL Public School, Dwarka. Students not only want to play the sport for the school, but they even want to pursue it for higher education.

IB Sports Academy’s Vision
#

Also, his Basketball academy IB SPORTS ACADEMY pursues each age group, not only open doors but also hearts to welcome you on the court. The primary goal of the Academy is to raise the level of Basketball and improve India’s performance internationally across various age groups. The team of coaches have always looked for innovative drills and exercises to suit the individual needs of every trainee instead of relying on a “one size fits all” approach.

“We have players of various age groups, ranging from 10 to 25 years in the academy. Each one is catered according to his abilities, they are enthusiastic to learn and have a vision for the sport. The core ability lies in your WILL, If you will to, I will guide you the way. That is best assured.” said Ishwar

A key reformer in students' lives, Ishwar has overseen all aspects of player development and coaching student-athletes for high school age prospects.
