MEET OUR SKILL TRAINERS

The Knights Travel Basketball Program is pleased to announce that our commitment to skills development continues for the upcoming year with a strategic partnership between Knights Basketball and our two fantastic profesional skill trainers. At Knights Basketball, we believe that the most important goal is to develop a skillset that prepares all players to be high school ready. We have partnered with elite coaches that have not only played collegiately but also as a professional. These trainers work inconjunction with Knights coaches to provide the best training available.

MEET OUR TRAINERS!!!!

Sydney Kopp is the owner of the girls-focused basketball training program, Detailed Basketball. Kopp grew up in Burr Ridge, IL and attended Hinsdale South High School.

Sydney then played 4 years of collegiate basketball at DePauw University. As a team captain and three-time all-conference honoree, Kopp helped lead DePauw to 4 NCAC titles and 4 national tournament appearances. She ended her collegiate career breaking the all-time scoring record, single-game scoring record, 3-point record, field goals made record, became NCAC player of the year, and was selected as a first team All-American.

Following her collegiate career, Sydney played 2 years professionally overseas in Germany. In her first season (2020-2021), Kopp finished averaging the second-highest points in the league with a 48% 3-point percentage and earned rookie of the year honors.

Kopp has trained youth players-college players for 3 years now, including individual sessions in Germany for the U16 team. Ranging from individual to larger groups, she has trained hundreds of players. Sydney loves teaching her knowledge and love of the game to other eager players by not only teaching the skills and techniques necessary but also the hard work and passion every great basketball player must have!

I am Elliot Engelmann and I am thankful to have coached so many student athletes with Power Through Basketball. I started PTB in March of 2018 because I wanted to help share the knowledge I learned on my basketball journey with players that want to be challenged to achieve their best on and off the court.

For as long as I can remember, basketball has been a huge focal point for my personal development. Basketball taught me many life skills that have been sharpened on and off the court. Focus, communication, hard work, confidence and team work are crucial life skills that basketball helped instill in me. Those skills continue to help me make the most out of opportunities throughout my professional career.

As coaches, we strive to prioritize those skills with each student athlete that we work with. The journey of self improvement is never ending and basketball can be a great teacher to young players and a good reminder to more seasoned players. I’ve been fortunate to train male and female players ranging from as young as 5 years old with no experience, to collegiate and professional basketball players that are currently under contract over seas.

Collectively the Knights’ boys program, Knights’ board and the Power Through Basketball team will provide individual skill development opportunities that will help players find some success in games. We will also help teach the game of basketball as a whole. I expect each player to be ready to be coached about opportunities and be willing to fail! All players will compete against themselves and their teammates. Learning how to compete is an essential skill that translates to more than basketball.
