MATTHEW SEGARRA

FOUNDER AND COACH

My basketball journey as a kid kept me on the straight and narrow as opposed to some of my peers. This journey also transcended into my adulthood three years ago when I started coaching; Starting with middle school and now High school hoops. I am starting this program as someone from the Lower East Side of Manhattan who has died and been born again many times, hoping that I can lead the next generation after me to carry on the tradition of the phoenix. To me, it’s bigger than basketball. It's about making sure the next generation is able to pass down the same discipline and principles which are learned through being an athlete; It's about making sure the future is straight.
