Upstate Elite is looking for more coaches
Head coaching positions are open at many levels as well as program assistants.

A program assistant is someone who can make practices but maybe cannot make all of them.  Each team has a head coach with at least two program assistants.  We understand there are a lot of coaches looking to give back in basketball but cannot take on the full responsibilities of a head coach.
