 Joao
Costa (JC) played professional basketball in Europe. He moved to the
United States to expand his knowledge of the game and train to be a
basketball coach. He lives in Seattle Washington.
Coach JC started his coaching career in the United State. He coached in
the Seattle area before going on the road to develop his coaching
techniques.
Coach JC participated in the practice and observed the coaching
techniques of some of the best NCAA Coaches in the league. Just a few
of the coaches JC was able to learn from were: Coach Mike Krzyzewski,
Coach Roy Williams, Coach Eddie Sutton, Coach Hubie Brown, Coach Tom
Newell, Coach Bob Bender. These Coaches inspired him to write his book
I'm Helping You Coach! 100+ Offense Drills For Your Basketball Program.
When Coach Bob Bender moved from the head coach of
the University of Washington to the assistant coach of the Philadelphia
76ers - he extended an invitation for Coach JC to continue to observe
and learn in the NBA. This started a new round of training for Coach JC
observing and learning from in the NBA. His book Improve Your Defense
Coach! Man-to-Man Defense Drills was inspired from what he learned from
the NBA.
Coach JC's third book "I GET IT, Coach! Practice Drills for your
Developing Team" was inspired by the teams he coached in both the
Middle East and the American Basketball Association (ABA).
Coach JC has been conducting coaches clinics and basketball camps
around the World. Teaching others what he has learned from the NCAA and
NBA. He has been the featured guest speaker on both the national and
international level.
Coach JC's knowledge of the game, emphasis on
fundamentals, and enthusiasm for teaching brings out the best in
individual players.
Coach JC has been coaching in USA for several years, ABA, WBA, ProAm as
well as Internationally. Coach JC has two new books coming soon -

One final note from Coach JC:
"Don't be afraid to contact and learn from the best coaches out there!
You will learn more then you ever imagined, you will build
relationships that will last a lifetime and you will become a better
coach then you set out to be."
