MEET THE COACH
Brandon Back, La Cueva
How did you fi rst get interested in coaching? Did you have somebody who got you
excited about coaching as a career?
Like most people that enter the coaching profession I had a mentor in high school that
just said the right things that made me think I could coach in the future. I’ve always loved
the technical side teaching football technique and a couple of my high school coaches oh,
probably just in passing, told me that I would make a good coach someday. That’s stuck
with me and still continues to stick with me to this day.
What would you have become professionally if not a teacher/coach?
What appealed to you about that profession?
My original goal in life was to be a
firefighter paramedic. However, I
blew out my ACL for the second
time and while rehabbing
and trying to test for the fire
department again I got my
first coaching job in high
school. I fell in love with it
instantly and decided to
make a career change.
Just the opportunity
to teach life lessons
through this great game.
And be around some of
the most unique and
talented young men in
our city.
