“Brian McCormick and ‘The Cross Over Movement’ are an oh-so-needed, breath of fresh air...As someone who, with decidedly mixed results, has tried to alter our country’s youth basketball direction in favor of ‘child development’ (instead of adult coaching X’s and O’s) for the past two decades, I truly welcome Brian’s combination of ideas, idealism and solutions. I feel fortunate to have Brian as an ally in the battle.”
