My name is Joshua Watkins, and basketball has been a central part of my life since I was four years old. Throughout my journey, I’ve been blessed to grow from a passionate young player to a coach and mentor, helping others reach their potential both on and off the court. I’ve faced my share of challenges along the way, including managing asthma while pursuing my athletic goals. One of my proudest moments was receiving the Jackie Joyner-Kersee Award, which honors athletes who overcome significant obstacles. This recognition serves as a reminder of my determination and resilience. I had the honor of playing basketball at Howard College, where my efforts led to being named Texas Player of the Year. It was a pivotal experience in my career, allowing me to grow as both a player and a person. While there, I earned an Associate of Science in Sociology, a field that deepened my understanding of team dynamics and how to foster strong connections with the people I coach. For eight years, I worked with the BSNY basketball teams and coaching staff, where I found my calling as a mentor. I also had the opportunity to serve as a camp counselor at the University of Utah, guiding young athletes in their development. My passion for coaching grew further when I transitioned to leading the junior varsity team at the Dwight School, where I helped shape and inspire the next generation of players. I am committed to my craft and pride myself on being a reliable and flexible professional. I have my own transportation, which allows me to be available whenever needed, and I’m always ready to support my players and teams. Basketball is more than just a game to me—it’s a way to teach life lessons, build character, and help others achieve greatness. As I continue this journey, I look forward to making an impact wherever I go.
I'm a basketball coach with a decade of experience igniting passion and developing skills in players of all levels. My coaching style blends technical expertise with a fun, encouraging approach, fostering a love for the game while driving results. Let's hit the court and unlock your full potential!
