About Court Sense:
Austin has been attending Irv Magill’s Court Sense Basketball instruction since spring, 2007 to further develop his ball-handling; fundamentals; and overall court awareness skills. Irv Magill’s Court Sense Program was highly recommended by someone whose basketball knowledge is second to none as someone who could take Austin’s game to a higher level. Austin enjoys Irv’s no nonsense, focused approach and attention to detail.
