COACH KELLY

Coach Kelly was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. She attended Schurr High School, where she was a four-year varsity member of the basketball team and competed in track and field. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education and Multiple Subject Teaching Credential and Master of Arts in Curriculum and Instruction from Grand Canyon University. She has previously taught early childhood and currently teaches second grade. Participating in athletics has always been a significant part of Kelly’s life. In order to fulfill that passion, she continued her higher education at Concordia University Irvine to earn her Master of Arts in Coaching and Athletics Administration.

When Kelly was sophomore in high school, she began coaching a girl’s travel basketball team. From this experience, she realized she loved coaching even more than when she played because she could give back to the youth and teach the next generation of athletes about the sport that provided so many meaningful life lessons and opportunities. Kelly coaches high school boys and girls varsity basketball teams, a boys club team, and trains athletes for strength, agility, and conditioning.
