Mike Herzenberg aka “Coach Herz” is a former elite guard at the high school and collegiate levels and a longtime high school varsity coach at Parsippany Hills High School. He’s also a veteran English and Special Education teacher, which gives him a unique ability to connect with every player, meet them where they are, and push them to improve.

At Coach Herz Hoops, he focuses on skills, fundamentals, and the small details that make a big difference on the court. Every drill is tailored to a player’s age, ability, and style, helping athletes build confidence, basketball IQ, and love for the game. Coach Herz is a lifelong student of basketball who takes pride in helping each player reach their full potential while keeping training fun, challenging, and meaningful.

This isn’t an AAU program — in fact, it couldn’t be more different. Coach Herz is not concerned with endless games, participation trophies, or inflating delusions. His focus is honest assessment, tackling weaknesses head-on, and turning them into strengths. With a no-shortcuts mentality and a contagious passion for the game, his training reflects his mantra:
“The game treats you how you treat it."    

So show it love.
