Galen Harkness

Galen Harkness - EYG Trainer

I am a former college assistant coach as well as a former head high school coach who has experienced success at each level. During each coaching opportunity I worked with competitive and dedicated basketball players who committed themselves to the process of getting better, and through that process have gone on to positively impact their basketball programs. I have been coaching, teaching, and training athletes since my undergraduate years in college. Since becoming a player development coach and starting EYG Basketball I have been able to work with some of the most impactful people or companies in player development such as The Point Guard College (PGC Basketball), Mike Lee, and Ganon Baker. Also during my coaching days, I had the privilege of working basketball camps from Oklahoma State, Iowa State, Purdue, and Colorado.
