IBAP at STI Academic Center


Coach Eric Altamirano

Coach Eric Altamirano is the renaissance man! He has reinvented the way basketball clinics should be. He believes that maximum supervision is important for each and every basketball player to fully grasp the basics of basketball and eventually excel in the sport. That in a nutshell is the foundation of Coach E basketball.


The Coach E approach is quite scientific that is why when it comes to teaching players it is important that the same approach he makes is echoed by the coaches he trains. Coach E not only makes sure that his coaches learn the correct basics in coaching and teaching skills, he also makes it a point that all his teachings are to the letter. That is where videos come into place.


Just recently Coach E gathered 40 Coaches to a workshop for them to not only enhance their coaching skills but also their teaching skills. In the next few months Coach E will be having clinics to school basketball students aged 5-19 the rudiments of basketball. Coaches old and young went to the two day workshop and were quire surprised with their new partners which sponsored their venue – STI.


International Basketball Academy of the Philippines President and Former University of Philippines Maroon Xavy Nunag was also there to put things into perspective as their topics ranged from technical skills enhancement to psychological skills. Xavy has also helped Coach E basketball in the projects in helping coaches improve their teaching and coaching skills. More stories when the Coach E basketball clinics start at the STI Academic Center Gym.
