TESTIMONIALS 

"Shawn with iHandle training is taking my daughter's talent to an entirely different level. She has had a number of trainers in the past and being the teenager that she is, I often had to prod her to go to training. This is NOT the case with Shawn. Shawn is constantly introducing new drills that challenge her each and every session. His teaching ability is second to none. When she gets frustrated by being forced out of comfort zone, he goes that extra mile to get back in the right mindset so that she is able to successfully complete the drill. I have enjoyed seeing her confidence in herself grow due to his continued positivity. Her footwork and skill on the court has improved by leaps and bounds. Shawn will be a key factor in my daughter reaching her potential as a college recruit."
- Kim Carpenter, mother of Avree Carpenter (Class of 2017- top Florida recruit- iHandle Client)


"Shawn has such a unique experience in the game. Having been a part of the Globetrotter organization after finishing his college basketball career, Shawn has seen about every style of basketball on the planet and has soaked up knowledge with every tour. He is unbelievably creative with his game and it carries over into how he trains young players. In addition, Shawn is a complete basketball junkie! If he isn't playing summer league basketball with former or current NBA players, he is at the local gym rounding up college guys for a run. His affection for playing and teaching are contagious, and his workouts are anything but stale. Shawn's greatest quality may be his humility and willingness to work with anyone, anytime, anywhere."
- Holly Borcher, 17 years coaching @ Wright State, Creighton, Florida Southern College

"Shawn is great. He has always put his clients first in all that he does. That’s a true testament of his character and ability to make everyone around him better. I’ve had the ability to work with Shawn for about 5 years now, and he’s never let me or my players down. A man of his word! On top of that, his knowledge of game and skill development is high level. This all shows within his resume and where his craft has taken him.  A true global basketball skills trainer!"
- Brandon Giles , Polk State College Men’s Basketball Head Coach

“Shawn Faust has become a major impact piece to our success and National Prominence. As we looked to accelerate the development of our players at SEU, we knew that we needed to find someone with passion and drive who could teach ball control and creative movement to give our players the most tools possible to attack the game and be able to play away from the train tracks and start making reactive decisions resulting in high efficiency finishes and playmaking. Whether an inexperienced freshman or a high major D1 transfer, Shawn can stretch and challenge each level of player with incredible positivity, giving them the confidence to push their game to the next level. He is great on the floor, but one of the most valuable aspects of his time with us has been his mentorship and guidance with individual players. His knowledge of the game and combined servant leader mentality maximizes the opportunity that each player has to reach their full potential.”
- Tim Hays, Southeastern University, Women's Basketball Head Coach

"Our organization has been working with Shawn for several years now. In our experience with Shawn, he has been the consummate professional and has gone above and beyond to support our players, teams, and programs. Shawn is a tremendous teacher, mentor, and trainer. We have been thoroughly impressed with the growth we have seen from our players that have been trained by Shawn. He has a unique ability to challenge kids while at the same time offer healthy and structured guidance. Shawn constantly makes himself available to help players at all levels. Our players and parents that train with Shawn have nothing but outstanding feedback. We wholeheartedly support and endorse Shawn Faust and his iHandle program."
- Rob Walker, ETYBA Tampa Thunder Director

"Over the last several years we have incorporated the expertise of  Shawn Faust, who has helped to enhance the skill of our players.  I was asked by a fellow coach "why would you bring Shawn into your program?”  My response was "why wouldn't you bring him into yours!"
-Terrence McGriff , Bartow High School
