I saw this position listed on NDA website. I have never seen this title connected with a high school before. What does a person in this position do on a high school basketball team? I know this person coaches (or use to) AAU and 1 or 2 of his former players now play for the Pandas.

Do you have a link to the NDA website?

Notre Dame Academy > Athletics > Teams and Schedules > Winter Sports > Basketball

It is listed under the team picture. The heading says 2015-2016 Coaching Staff

Thanks. I don't recall seeing it listed on any high school websites before, but I like the idea.

What would their job description be? I'm an NDA alum and I think this job is unnecessary on the high school level. I wonder how many hours are spent working on behalf of the program and what the compensation is.

Unneeded position. Do they have one for soccer and volleyball ? 2 sports there that I can see needing one over basketball. I can't see that NDA coach Using it but anything other than a secretary. I also wonder if this is a paying position and if so do the parents have to pay in one shape or form for it. Whatever this position does how about the assistant coaches do it.

Is this a position for Nancy Winstel

No. I just text a friend who has a daughter on the team. " I have no idea at all" jerry Allen is the assistant coach now which "they love" "not sure what he does" being said of this person. I asked how NDA was looking and response was " let you know in 3 months"

Let's talk about the team picture. Why does everyone look so angry? Shouldn't it be fun?

I'm certain the school approved this position and all is well. Some programs have several assistant coaches. this is no different. Not worth getting a bee in your bonnet over.

It is just a title

Is the issue around the title or is the issue around an AAU coach having the job at a private school? My guess is it's the latter.

There are quite a few High School Coaches that Coach AAU in the summer so I wouldn't think that would be a issue at all.

Let me be more clear: A non-coaching position that had never existed was created and an AAU coach took it. Some may think that there isn't enough need so having said AAU coach in the position COULD have ancillary benefits.

So this never existed before? Is this something that could've existed but wasn't typed up and posted on their website?
