Meet Zach Cohen,

Co-Founder and Director of Operations of Las Vegas Athletics of Basketball also known as The LAB.  Zach is a teacher,  basketball performance trainer and player development coach with over 20 years experience.  As a licensed K-12 Physical Education Instructor for CCSD Title 1 schools, he understands first hand the importance, and impact of increasing the opportunity to access elite basketball training for all student athletes throughout our Las Vegas communities.   Recognizing the lack of access to high-quality and effective basketball training programs, he Co-Founded The LAB Organization through unique educational approaches to help transform the student athlete as a whole. He inspires participants to learn the importance of communicating, character building, consistency, and accountability.  This leads to achieving personal goals set while building positive relationships giving our athletes confidence to take into their future and our communities.  

Being a father and educator has given him the compassion, and vital knowledge of understanding how each individual learns differently.  His ability to teach the game of basketball while using the sport to create a bigger purpose with positive community engagement is the ultimate goal.  His unmatched energy and, unique training style allow for transformative results. Coach Zach truly believes in helping youth athletes excel to the next level through effective training techniques which include: physical, mental, academic support towards excellence, and healthier lifestyle choices.  At the LAB, we honor this approach and present the opportunity for all participants to Learn, Attain, and Believe in themselves.
