Meet Brad Winters

During his basketball coaching career, coach Brad Winters led his teams to the Championship at many different levels of competition – High School, AAU, YBOA, BCI, and Biddy Basketball.

On the high school level, Winters won over 200 games (217-60, .783), won back-to-back state championships in 2001 and 2002, and was named Louisiana Sports Writers Coach of the Year in 2002. But according to the coach, no basketball accomplishment can top the opportunity to help coach his son’s 12-year-old Biddy Basketball team that won the 1998 Biddy Basketball National Championship in Wichita, Kansas.

Coach Brad Winters

“I just loved coaching basketball. Very few things in life gave me as much joy and satisfaction as working with young people and going daily into the gym and trying to build a championship-caliber team. The whole process of building a team – player development on and off the court, program planning and organization, organizing and running quality practices, managing and motivating your players, implementation of a sound game plan, and the actual bench coaching during the game - truly energized me. To me, basketball coaching and working with young people is such a noble and honorable task for anyone to undertake.” -Brad Winters
