"Billy Cass is one of the best in the business and we are lucky to have him at Bonner Prendie!  In just a short amount of time, he has transformed our skill development program and has our guys itching to get back in the gym each day.  Every one of his workouts are unique and tailored to the specific player’s skill set.  The drills are game like and competitive, which is what our players love the most.  I highly recommend Billy Cass to anyone who is looking to improve their game and understand the type of work ethic that’s needed to be great!"

​"I've known Billy Cassidy for 17 years, since day 1 I could see the love this kid had for basketball. He was our water boy at the age of 7/8 and the kid always had a ball in his hand. Fast forward 17 years and all of his hard work has paid off. Having a great college career and now teaching these young kids from day 1 what it takes to get better. I've watched him a lot, with kids as young as 4/5 to kids in college and he just gets it! He works so well with these young boys and girls and they all love him. they can't wait to get back to see him. He makes it fun, which it should be, but he makes them work! When someone asks me about needing someone to work their kids out, he's the first person and really the only person that comes to mind."

"If you are tired of "one drill fits all" trainers, then you should use Coach Billy Cassidy.  Coach Billy listens to the individual player and in our case the players parents who are also high school coaches to identify areas of specific focus to improve on.  Each workout is then tailored to refine the exact skills and techniques that address these areas.  This makes Billy very effective and efficient.  Our son really enjoys working out with Coach Cass!"

"We have been training with Billy since November and have seen a huge improvement with our daughters B-ball skills. Due to holiday schedule we missed a month of work outs and it showed. However after a 15 minute chat and a 45 minutes session her confidence came back and she finished the season strong.  Not only has she improved her b-ball skills but her confidence on and most importantly off the court has grown so much. Thanks again Coach Billy for all your help!"

"Billy is dedicated,skilled and passionate in teaching and helping kids improve on their basketball skills. My 3 girls have been working with Billy and I have seen a big improvement in all aspects of their game. After the workout they always ask when do we go back to Billy."

"When your 3 daughters say when do we have “Billy” again, this might be the biggest testament to his teaching and coaching philosophy. For almost 2 years I have watched my daughters get better and gain confidence playing basketball. He breaks the game down and uses drills that push the players out of their comfort zone.  He is engaging and really positive with his approach to the players. His clinics, camps and private trainings are second to none!!"

"Billy has trained my 10yr old son many times and it is always a player specific workout. He consistently  pushes him to excel in all phases of his game. Billy demonstrates all the advanced ball handling and shooting drills himself (which legitimizes his skills to the player). He is encouraging while expecting 100% effort. After each session, my son is asking when the next one will be because he is having fun as well as learning about the sport. I would rate him a 10/10 as we (myself and son) are always highly satisfied with each session which has resulted in better game play during his season."

"My daughter worked out with Billy to get ready for her CYO basketball season. His knowledge of the game, work ethic, and enthusiasm were evident in every drill he ran in every session we attended. His attention to detail allowed him to tweak and refine my daughter’s shot and ball handling and greatly improve her game.  His love of the game is contagious and his instruction and encouragement helped turn my daughter into a much more confident player. Her overall conditioning greatly improved over the weeks of work outs, which was an added and welcome bonus.
If you are looking for someone with a true passion for the game, who just wants to share his love for and knowledge of basketball with your child, you don’t need to look any further.
We are looking forward to continue working with Billy to take Maille’s game to the next level."

"My son  is left handed but shoots right handed. After coming off the worst season of him playing basketball, his confidence was low and he wasn't mentally there. After being told by a friend we decided to try Cassidy X Skills Training. We started coming July of 2018. This last basketball season, my son has had his best season ever. Billy has helped him improve his jump shot and ball handling. The year I am proud to say that he was one of the top scorers of his team and picked for the all star team. Billy Cassidy is a great mentor and trainer. His training  is top notch and I would recommend him to anybody who wants to improve!"

"I was introduced to Billy towards the end of 2018. Him and my daughter made an instant connection at her first training session. Since then she hasn’t gone more than a week without training with him. She recently tried out for her first AAU team after only playing CYO for a few years. Out of 40+ girls she was one of 12 elected to be on the team. Billy played a key role in preparing her for the tryouts. He brings a personal approach to his training sessions that is different from other trainers that I’ve seen. His sessions aim to improve his students weaknesses while challenging and building upon their strengths. Most importantly Billy is a great role model for young ball players. A true student of the game, he holds himself to a high standard and displays a strong passion for the game. He communicates well and is accommodating in regards to scheduling. I highly recommend Billy Cassidy if you’re looking for trainer who knows the game and who will also be a great role model for your child."
