I wish I had Coach Court with me from the time I started playing sports. I’ve learned so many lessons about athletics and life from Coach Court that I will carry with me the rest of my life. Through all my years of athletics, Coach Court is by far the most knowledgeable, driven, and enthusiastic coach I’ve had.

Coach Court is a guy who wants to get the best out of every individual he coaches. From the first moment I met him, we got along because I loved his philosophies and what he demanded out of me. Moving across from Australia was daunting not knowing anyone but he was always there if I ever needed anything. His energy and enthusiasm are contagious and motivated me to really give 100 percent on every training session. He has certainly helped my career and developed me physically and I feel I really grew as a person under his guidance. Out of all the strength coaches, he by far has had the biggest impact on me both physically and mentally. Coach Court has taught me how to be a leader, how to deal with adversity and really helped develop my mental toughness. I’ll always continue to reach out to him for advice or guidance as we have a great friendship. I highly recommend him as a coach and person.

Personable Coach, whose motives and purpose for his players are strictly to improve! I’m thankful for my two years under Coach Court and the impact he had on my career. Whether it was talking about personal problems, strength training, conditioning, leadership or becoming a better person, Coach Court always had answers for me. He’s the type of coach who impacts a player’s career and life. Thank you, Court!

Coach Court is one of the most influential individuals in my life. Whether it was on the field or in my career, he taught me the lessons I still follow today. From being a leader to challenging yourself to be a better you, there’s no greater mentor and coach than Rick Court.

I had the opportunity to be trained by Rick Court for two years while playing basketball at Bowling Green State University, and continued to train with him during many off seasons as I continued through my professional career. Rick combines an extremely high level of knowledge, passion, work ethic, and professionalism to bring athletes to their peak level of strength and conditioning. I employed Rick's philosophy of strength training and nutrition, and was able to play 10 consecutive basketball seasons without missing a game from age 21-31. Rick was always willing to put me through a workout anytime of the day while I was in college, and many years after graduation. More importantly, the sacrifice and attention that Rick showed myself and many other athletes created a trusted bond that is still strong today.

Coach Rick Court was a great strength and conditioning coach to work with during my time at MSU. He showed up with a ton of energy everyday to help us reach our max potential on and off the field. Through him I learned what it meant to be mentally tough and how to handle adverse situations. He would challenge us to be better than we were the day before!

Being coached by Coach Rick Court had a great impact on my life. Not only was he one of the greatest coaches but he was one of the greatest teachers. He put us in adverse situations to teach us how to handle the adversity life brings! He showed up everyday with the fire and passion to teach, coach and mentor. All of this was done with great accountability and integrity!

Working with Rick is great! His attention to detail, knowledge, and expertise really work hand in hand while training. He truly cares about his athletes on a personal level. Would recommend him 10 out of 10 times!

I was able to have two years under Coach Court system at Mississippi State and he was one of the best coaches we had. The weight room say groups come in anytime throughout the day and he was always the first one there and the last one gone, holding the same level of intensity. When going through his system, you came out well educated on nutrition and weightlifting, because he found a way to teach us players the “why” to keep us on track to reach our goals.
