Hamilton District Christian High, Boys Basketball Coach

Jared has coached both boys and girls at the high school level for 9 seasons and counting. He has also been involved with instructing beginning players in various community settings.

"Beyond the skills and understanding of basketball are many valuable lessons that transfer into everyday life. The most valuable to me has been teamwork, commitment, and communication.”

Jared played high school basketball for a CWOSSA championship team and at the rep level as well. His fondest memories of his playing days are the relationships and camaraderie that were built with teammates and coaches.

"When I reflect to my beginning experiences with basketball I recall a strong focus on fundamentals. This is what I hope to instill in campers. Just like a successful jump needs a strong base, so to a developing player.”
