A 12-week development program designed to help smaller guards become the most skilled, reliable, and dangerous players on the floor, regardless of size.
Point Guard Program
What's Inside:
A 12-week plan (5 days/week) built to develop elite point guard skill. Each workout is designed to be done solo with minimal equipment, while directly connecting to live play.
on par with the classic "Attention to Detail" series, Coleman has produced hours of content exclusive to the Small Guard Essentials Program to take your results to the next level and become a student of the game!
We've identified 18 foundational skills required for undersized guards, and we strategically target them in workouts throughout the program.
All Virtual Academy programs include additional resources (e.g., nutritional guidance, yoga sessions, exclusive workouts, and more)
Stop guessing during workouts and games. This program gives point guards a clear system to train with purpose and lead with confidence.
THE BAM DIFFERENCE
We're glad you asked! Here's what makes our Small Guard Essentials different than anything you've ever experienced:
We understand the struggle of looking for someone to train with and having no luck.
This program is built so you can develop elite skill and feel on your own, using intentional reps that translate directly to live play when you step back on the court.
Solo workouts that build real game tools
Skill development without relying on defenders
Reps that sharpen handle, finishing, and shot creation
The best undersized guards separate themselves by being undeniable: so skilled, composed, and adaptable that you can't turn them down.
This program develops the tools small guards rely on most: change of pace, touch, creativity, counters, and confidence in tight spaces.
Advanced handle and pace control to neutralize pressure
Finishing solutions for length, contact, and crowds
Shot creation skills that work without perfect space
By the end of the program, you will have improved in all of these categories, with a better feel for how to train them in the future:
BALLHANDLING MOVEMENT
FLOATERS & RUNNERS
SHIFTINESS
DEFENSE
SHOOTING REPETITION, THE RIGHT WAY
CATCH AND SHOOT ADAPTABILITY
FREESTYLE AND INNOVATION
SHORT JUMPERS
FINISHING WITH CONTACT
MID RANGE EFFICIENCY
BALLHANDLING PACE
BALLHANDLING CREATIVITY
CONTESTED SHOOTING
3-POINT RANGE
ATHLETICISM FINISHING
ALL-AROUND COMPETITIVENESS
HANDLING PRESSURE
PICK AND ROLL GAME
You’ll notice:
Small guards must be the most skilled on the floor, and this program doesn't shy away from that, but looks to stretch the limits of your skill!
You've trained in ways that build deep, adaptable skill, not just monotonous reps that have you stuck when it's game-time!
Success leaves clues, so film study is a big focus on the program! You'll leave with a better feel for how to execute despite smaller stature.

West Virginia
“In just two months of being with By Any Means, business has been awesome. Running your own business can be a lot, and to really do it the right way, you need a team. They’ve become the backbone of what I do—providing a ton of resources and helping me run the overall business. It’s a collaborative process. Every move we make is a discussion. I didn’t have to give up anything—it’s still my business, but now I’ve got a team I can run ideas through, get tips, and move in the right direction. Most importantly, it frees me up to do what I do: coach basketball.”
Toronto
“If you’re thinking about taking that first step—take it. I started as a kid who just loved basketball and didn’t expect much to come from it. Fast forward, I’m now a full-on business owner, traveling the world, meeting amazing people, and growing in every way. My personal life is better, I’m healthier, my relationships are stronger, and I’ve become a better communicator and listener. Even if none of this pans out, it’s already a net positive. But you’ve got to be locked in. It starts with investing in yourself.”
San Jose
“Since joining BAM, everything’s been super smooth. It’s helped me take a real step forward in my business. The resources, the connections, and the support have been a dream come true. I’ve mixed my passion for basketball with my passion for helping people grow. Before BAM, it felt a little lonely. Now I’ve got a network, I’ve hosted my first camp with 30 people, and financially I’m doing way better thanks to the systems and membership program. It’s been nothing but great news.”
The Reality of how players work on their game
We asked over 500 Virtual Academy members about how they trained in the past. Here's what we learned about how players are truly developing around the world:
It's already tougher for smaller guards. Training with limited strategy or system makes it nearly impossible to reach a high level.

Your Questions, Answered
All Virtual Academy programs are 10-12 weeks, with the exception of the Ultimate Athleticism Program (much longer) and the Advanced Ballhandling Extension (more of a weekly routine). Each of these are organized into daily workouts in a strategically planned order (for example: Week 3, Day 4: Acceleration Technique). Then, we use the weekends to attack other important pieces of a holistic training schedule, such as mobility, meditation, recovery, IQ, and more!
the SGE can be done with a simple hoop and basketball! Preferably, you'll have access to a partner, a group, or pickup games at some point throughout the week, but it's not required.
Each workout is adjustable based on how much time you have, and for skill level. They can take anywhere from 45 minutes to two hours depending on how you're feeling and how much time you have!
Each drill can be adjusted based on skill level. All programs have been tested on players of all levels (literally intermediate youth up to NBA players), and have proven to meet players where they're at, especially with the progressions and regressions we provide to make it easier or more difficult!
Yes, the SGE is a one-time payment, lifetime access program!
We understand that sometimes, card purchases are not possible. So we've made this possible! Please send an email to [email protected] to get your solution ASAP.
No refunds are accepted on Virtual Academy programs.
