Coach: Tom Snikkers
Business Owner / Advisor for Small Business Benefits of Michigan
1st year coaching (2nd overall)
I grew up surrounded by sports, competing alongside my siblings and friends across multiple disciplines (Basketball, Football, Baseball, & Soccer). My passion for athletics led me to earn a bachelor’s degree in Sports Management and a master’s degree in Sport Administration. As a former collegiate athlete, I was blessed with the opportunity to play basketball professionally overseas—an experience that allowed me to travel, build lifelong relationships, and see firsthand how sport can shape character and community.
After several years away from competitive athletics, I felt called to return to the game to invest in the next generation. My goal as a coach is to help student-athletes grow not only as basketball players but also as young men of faith, character, and perseverance. I want to use basketball as a tool to teach valuable life lessons—how to compete with integrity, handle adversity, hold each other accountable, and pursue excellence in all areas of life. Above all, I hope to help these young men grow into who God has designed them to be.
