Meet Coach Robby — Founder of Level 10 Basketball in Bakersfield
My Basketball Journey
I grew up in Lilburn, Georgia, and basketball has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. The game took me to Furman University, where I played Division I basketball, and then across Europe for seven incredible years of professional play.
The most meaningful part of my basketball journey wasn’t the games I played — it was the people I learned from and the kids I’ve gotten to coach.
Today, I bring those experiences to youth basketball training in Bakersfield through Level 10 Basketball.
How I Coach
Kids first. Growth always.
Joy over fear.
Learning through play, not lines.
Confidence over perfection.
Creativity over conformity.

Basketball has given me so much. Now I get to pass that joy on — one kid, one practice, one fist bump at a time.
