Isaac Marshman is a Brisbane-based basketball skills trainer and the founder of Element Basketball, specialising in helping players turn training into real game performance.

He is known for delivering elite-level training environments, with a strong attention to detail and a coaching style that goes beyond just giving answers - instead, helping players think, problem-solve, and perform in game.

Through Element Basketball, Isaac provides:

• Individual skill development sessions

• Game-based group training

• Academy programs

• Film analysis & breakdown

• Goal setting/Program planning

• Junior & Adult team opportunities

Isaac’s coaching journey began at just 13 years old, driven by a deep curiosity to understand why performance happens - not just the outcome. While most watched games for entertainment, he studied them.

After years coaching across school, club, and representative programs, a turning point came in 2019 working alongside NBA skills coach Drew Hanlen in Brisbane. That experience exposed a major gap in Australian basketball -players weren’t being taught how to truly develop.

Since then, Isaac has refined his approach across multiple academies, building a system that develops players from beginners through to high-level athletes.
