About

Meet the Team

BAM BAM has two co-founders, one from basketball and one from volleyball. Between them they cover most of what walks through the door.

Will Bullard

Co-founder and manager

Will has played for the Harlem Globetrotters since 2008 and is still on the active roster — a guard, number 33, 6'4", out of Detroit.

He got there through the 2008 NCAA College Slam Dunk Contest, where he finished second on an ESPN broadcast. The Globetrotters saw it and called him in to try out. He calls that call his greatest achievement.

Before that he played at Texas A&M–Corpus Christi from 2006 to 2008, starting 12 of 23 games as a senior, having been named a 2005 USCAA Second Team All-American and taken All-League honorable mention at Richland College in 2006. He attended New York Jets rookie camp in 2008.

Since then he has set a Guinness World Record — the longest backflip shot, 58 feet 1.25 inches, in 2018, and it still stands. He has three American Ninja Warrior appearances behind him, reaching the Las Vegas finals on the first and placing 7th out of more than 200 competitors in a southeast qualifying round. He has made a trick shot from a helicopter 210 feet up, and has taken the Globetrotters Culture Award in 2016 and their Brand Excellence Award in 2019.

His full playing record is on the Harlem Globetrotters roster.

What that means for an athlete here: Will has spent close to two decades being coached at a professional standard and is direct about passing that on. He runs basketball skill work, athlete mentorship, and the Bullbody Society, the nonprofit side of the gym.

Steve Miksis

CEO and co-founder

Steve played Division I volleyball at USC. He has coached at St. Vincent de Paul High School and trained Division I athletes, and co-founded BAM BAM with Will.
