President’s Message
Dear TABC Members,
As we enter the 2021-2022 school year, the TABC and its coaches have never been more relevant and important in the lives of our student athletes and professional community. I believe the TABC network can play a positive role in our commitments, and know that as coaches we all value the opportunity to build relationships with our colleagues and players. TABC is a team that enables us to advocate, brainstorm, network, mentor, and give back to our communities through basketball. As we approach the start of our basketball seasons, TABC is here to support you as a coach. I’m proud of our organization’s successes over the last year, particularly in providing more opportunities for meaningful engagement and involvement through our Virtual Mini Clinic Series. The VMC Series is introducing innovative formats and topics, and providing professional development and outreach opportunities for all members across Texas. In the year ahead, we will continue to offer these membership incentives, as well as promote “boots on the ground” coaches to share and collaborate across this great State. Finally, if you have not joined for 2021-2022 I encourage you to do so soon. The next VMC, FREE to all 2021-2022 members, is set for October 3rd and we don’t want you to miss the great line-up of speakers. Thank you members for your continued support and enthusiasm in our professional community. Your leadership and mentor-ing is needed now more than ever! Wishing you all a good and successful 2021-2022, and looking for-ward to seeing you soon.
Angela Spurlock – President, TABC
