Pete Strobl started The Scoring Factory in 2009 upon settling in Pittsburgh after a successful nine year career in the European professional leagues. He was a member of the Austrian National Basketball team and played in France, Austria, Ireland, Germany, Iceland and Switzerland.
Prior to his professional playing career, Coach Strobl earned both Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees as a scholarship player at Niagara University, graduating in 2000. As a by-product of working through language barriers with international players of all ages and skill levels, Coach Strobl has developed a unique ability to break down shooting mechanics, footwork and ball skills. His tactical knowledge of the game and work ethic developed through years of fierce competition combine with excellent communication skills to make him a sought after clinician, speaker and coach. He is also the award winning author of Backspin.
Coach Strobl is the proud father of four children with his wife Sheryl Strobl. In addition to his playing career, he spent several years as a Head Coach in the German Bundesliga, led international coaching clinics and served as a Head Coach in Italy. To learn more, follow on twitter or instagram.
