About Us
ABOUT NTL
Never Too Late® Basketball was formed in 1992 by Steve Bzomowski, former assistant basketball coach at Harvard University and NBA scout.
Since then thousands of beginning, novice, intermediate, and advanced level recreational adult players, men and women, from more than a dozen countries, plus aspiring professionals (and kids in the Parent/Kid clinics), have taken part in Never Too Late® Basketball instructional programs.
Our specialty is assessing players’ abilities, introducing them to new and improved and updated skills through drills and evaluation, all the while providing feedback and instruction.
Never Too Late® Basketball offers:
- Weekly Practice Programs in Boston, NYC, SF and Chicago
- Weekend Camps in fun getaway locations
- Private camps, clinics and corporate team building programs

WHO PLAYS NTL?
We have coached players from 18 to 88 years of age with a wide range of skills and experience. Players new to the game; players who have played a fair amount but never received great coaching (or any coaching); and players who played in high school or college and like being in a structured coached environment with like-minded players all come to the NTL camps and clinics. We work with players who want to get more game.
OUR MISSION
We seek to provide the highest quality basketball training, instruction, guidance and coaching for adult players in a supportive, inclusive environment. We believe in, and never waver from, the unifying aspect of the TEAM part of basketball. Never is it more apparent that people working together accomplish so much more than when basketball, or any team sport, is played the right way. You bring your desire and spirit; we add knowledge and insight. Together we build a community of athletes of all ages with common goals and values.

NTL PLAYERS TALK THE TALK
They’ve been there. They’ve hooped NTL. Here’s what they’ve learned and have to say:
Rebound For Glory: They shoot. They Score. At Hoops Camp, That’s the Point. by John Rosenthal
Some of the… techniques I learned at the camp suddenly found their way into my game. I don’t know who was more surprised, me or the other players who were accustomed to watching me miss layups or stealing the ball from me…
If You Gotta Have Hoops… Finally, basketball camp is not just for lucky kids by Jay Jennings
I faked my man all the way to the Appalachian Trail, then tossed in a jumper that was all net. That ragged Friday night pickup game seemed light-years away.
