At High Mountain Hoops, we are committed to helping to further establish a better basketball community. Our coaching internship program is designed to help existing coaches become better, and to give aspiring coaches the information they need to become an excellent basketball coach. Our interns will go through a 6 week program consisting of coursework, classroom work, and drill work in a practice setting. Our interns will assist one of our existing coaches, and must sit on the bench for at least two games. Upon completing an exit exam, coaches will be NFHS certified, NCAA certified, AAU/PCA certified, and CPR/First Aid certified.
