Growing up in Silver Spring, MD, with older brothers that played basketball, I developed a love for the game from as early as I can remember. I have been coached by hall-of-fame caliber coaches in both basketball and football, have coached with several outstanding coaches, and have coached players at all levels of basketball - from five star college prospects down to four-year-old beginners. Even after all these years, there is always something new to learn and new and better ways to reach young athletes. To be able to combine my love of coaching with business entrepreneurship for these 25 plus years has been nothing short of a dream come true. I am a graduate of Pennsylvania State University, and a lifelong learner of all aspects of education and history. Nothing is more important to me than my great family. My wife, affectionately known as “Mrs. Coach Rich,” is the brains behind our music program. I am blessed with two great kids as well, and lucky enough to have my extended family all within the DMV area.
