A BETTER WAY TO DEVELOP.

Most players collect workouts. We connect the dots—what you need, why you need it, what to work on now, and how everything fits together over the course of a year. Think of us as your 'Chief Development Officer'.

03 / ACCOUNTABILITY

We work as a team to hold you accountable to the vision that we created together.

The system that keeps everyone aligned.

Development can get fragmented fast. Workouts are in one place. Film is somewhere else. Recruiting conversations live in texts. Stats get forgotten. Priorities change. The Maximize Database brings it all together so the player, family and coaches can always see where the player is, what matters now, what has changed and what comes next.

FROM 6th MAN TO HEART SURGERY TO THE ACC.

When Jack Donohue began Maximize Year-Long Development in 10th grade with a Kitchen Table meeting with Jack, his parents (Darren and Danielle), and Coach Dags. Together, they laid out the vision for Jack's journey, committed to the work, and to stay accountable in the good and bad times.

​

In 10th Grade, Jack was the 6th Man for his Varsity team.  That summer he was diagnosed with (Diagnosis) and had to undergo Open Heart Surgery.  After recovering, he enrolled at The #1 Prep School in the country (Newman) and restarted his development path. The path may have changed, but the plan never changed: continue developing, put him in the right environments, and help him become the player he was capable of becoming.

10th Grade

Development Journey

begins with a committment to work

10+ Offers

Great season at Newman School + NJ Shoreshots

ACC

Committed to

play for 

Syracuse University

After a great year of development at Newman, and a great AAU Season with the NJ Shoreshots (UAA Circuit), Jack had 10+ offers from Mid Major and High Major Schools before deciding to COMMIT TO SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY IN THE ACC!

Jack's passion for basketball increased as he got older.  We knew that we wanted to support him in his journey to become the best player he could be and reach his goal of playing High Major D1 Basketball.  ​

The year long development program with Coach Dags provided Jack with Development and expert Guidance/Mentorship for Jack, as well as us as parents.  

Jack was fortunate to play for great coaches at the Prep and AAU level, and Maximize does an unbelievable job of collaborating with those programs to do what is best for the players.

We are excited to see the development continue.
