"I am thankful that my son and I met you last year. You have been a very positive influence on his life...certainly good lessons but also good life lessons. You are an awesome teacher and coach. You certainly have a great knowledge of the game, but you also have a rare ability to break the knowledge down into increments that can be readily absorbed. Plus you have a very motivational approach....you set a high bar and mix in positive reinforcement with direct feedback. It has been a great experience."

"Coach O’Brien and the Rising Star staff have a tremendous ability to not only teach the fundamental aspects of the game but also convey both a perspective and appreciation to the campers about the diligent work and practice required to find success on the court. Beyond the noticeable skill improvement over a 4 day period, Rising Star’s most notable strength is introducing and embedding a love and passion for basketball in the majority of young athletes that attend. "
-Sean Spellman, Head Coach at The Roxbury Latin School.
"I have had the pleasure of working at Rising Star Camp and I can tell you that there is no better place for a player to improve their skills in a short amount of time than this camp. Coach O'Brien is a dedicated coach and his passion for improving players skill sets is apparent right from the start. In my twenty four years of coaching high school basketball I have worked many camps across the country and Rising Star is clearly one of the best. I recommend Rising Star highly and I guarantee any player that they will be a better player and person after attending a session."
- Rob Sarmiento, Head Boys Basketball Coach, Arlington Catholic High School
"The RISING STAR Basketball School is a terrific opportunity for players to learn from the staff that is dedicated to teaching the fundamentals and learning the game in a competitive atmosphere"
