My name is Josh Freid, and I’m excited to coach this year’s 7th and 8th grade YMCA basketball team. I played basketball in high school and later served as Student Body Vice President at ASU, experiences that shaped my passion for leadership and teamwork.

I coach because I believe sports teach more than just the game. They build confidence, discipline, and resilience. My goal is to help players grow as athletes and as teammates, learning lessons that will carry well beyond the court.
