Summary
Dear Wheelersburg Athletic department,
I am seeking the opportunity to fill the role of junior high girls basketball coach. I am a inspiring Coach bringing knowledge and high energy for the athletes to learn and love the game of basketball. Passionate about mentoring athletes to build sustainable training of the sport and general life skills. Excited to continue working with these athletes into their junior high years and get them ready for high school level basketball. I loved and still love the game of basketball. I played all through school and on many travel ball teams and ended my career at Rio Grande University. I have been coaching most of these girls since biddy ball. I have coached through cornerstone, wheelersburg youth basketball leagues, and have coached a travel ball team the last 4 years. I would love the opportunity continuing doing what I love (coaching).
