My name is Wesley. I grew up in a small town in East Tennessee. I always had big dreams of playing basketball my whole life. I played college basketball for 3 years and my senior year I realized that I didn’t love the game of basketball anymore. It broke my heart that a coach had taken the love of the game I have played since age 5 away from me. My first trip back home my high school coach offered me a coaching position at my old high school. It was one of the best days of my life. I have been doing it for 5 years now about to start my 6th year. I would trade the kids I coach for anything in this world. I promised myself that I would never make a kid feel the way my coach made me feel in college. I want the to love the game of basketball and also learn how to grow into young men. I know that I can be role model to these kids I coach and I push myself every single day to be the very best person I can be for those kids. The best feeling in the world is seeing the smile on their face when I come in to practice. GOD took playing away from me but GOD opened a bigger and better door for me in coaching these kids. GOD has blessed me so much in life and I am so thankful that he gave me these kids to coach.
