NOLA LADY SPARTANS

Taking Basketball To The Next Level

Coach Joe Marcelino is a true basketball visionary, with an extensive background in the sport that has led him to become one of the most exciting and experienced coaches out there. Despite a promising career in professional basketball, he decided to pursue his education and career in medicine, but basketball never left his heart. From his high school days, where he received numerous accolades including AAU, BCI, and Jerry Mullen All American awards, to his experience as a player in the La Liga Superior De Puerto Rico, Coach Joe has always been committed to the game.

What sets him apart as a coach is his over 28 years of coaching experience, starting as a Biddy Basketball head coach when he was only 13 years old. He has since led teams at Our Lady Prompt Succer (OLPS) in Chalmette, LA, Park Ball in Los Angeles, Kenner, and New Orleans, where he instills championship winning fundamentals and techniques in all of his student athletes. Coach Joe's dedication to the sport has resulted in numerous AAU National Championships and one BCI National Championship for the New Orleans Spartan basketball teams.

Moreover, Coach Joe is not just an exceptional coach, but also an innovator. He is the originator of the WHOO way of thinking and concepts, which stands for Winners Help Others Overcome, and Win Honor Others Overcome. His unique approach to coaching has helped many young athletes not only excel on the court, but also in life. Currently, he is establishing the new and exciting NOLA Lady Spartans, where he continues to inspire young athletes to reach their full potential. Overall, Coach Joe Marcelino's passion and experience in basketball make him a true asset to the sport and to the young athletes he coaches.

What sets Coach K apart is her ability to connect with our players on a personal level. As a former player herself, she understands the challenges and pressures that our young athletes face both on and off the court. She is able to provide guidance and support in a way that resonates with our girls, inspiring them to work hard and strive for excellence. Her experience and talent as a basketball player is a source of inspiration and motivation for our team, as she encourages our players to push themselves to their full potential.
