Meet our coaches
Coach Jeyvi
My name is Jeyvi Miavivululu and I'm the founder of Never Give Up Basketball Academy. After attending Felician University on a basketball scholarship, I had the opportunity to play professional basketball overseas and live from my passion. With my knowledge and my experiences, I hope to help all basketball players within their basketball journey. I currently work as a Basketball assistant coach at my alma mater and help student-athletes perfect their craft.
Coach Chris
My name is Chris Aguilar. I’ve been an Early Education teacher for over 23 years, a pre-school sports coach for the last 5 years and have been a basketball fanatic for even longer. I’ve played in numerous youth and adult recreational leagues throughout my life. Basketball is more than a game to me. It has taught me so many life lessons: communication, problem solving, physical and mental endurance, how to win with grace and how to lose with dignity. The game is pure joy to me and it is a privilege to pass these skills and lessons on to newer generations of players as they develop into the players and people they’re meant to be.
