Basketball at NJAC

Basketball with Coach Fisher

Born and raised in Queens, William Fisher grew up playing for some of the best AAU teams in New York City such as Riverside Church, Gauchos Gym, and Sky Riders. He competed against great ball players like Stephon Marbury, Ron Artest, and Rucker Park legend Rafer Alston, also known as "Skip 2 My Lou.” Coach Fisher received a high school scholarship to Lauringberg Prep in North Carolina, and played under Coach Gil Reynolds. He went on to attend Southwestern Community College in San Diego, California, under a scholarship. 

The program at NJAC will teach basketball fundamentals such as dribbling, shooting, passing, and defense. Kids will learn to play together, work as a team, have fun, and most of all, learn to love the game.
