We’re lucky to have Coach Rich Curry, a former pro basketball player with over 17 years of coaching experience, working with our children in the Mon-Wed basketball after-school program and helping coach the Tu-Thur 5th-8th Basketball Club as a volunteer. Coach knows the game and knows how to help kids develop skills, court intelligence, and a love for the game. Rich and his wife April, who teaches PE to grades K-3 and runs our Recess program, are both master coaches.
