Fred Crowell, Founder and CEO

Fred Crowell, at the age of 23 became the youngest Division I coach in America, coaching at both University of Alaska Fairbanks and then Samford University. He left college coaching and joined CRU as the first coach of Athletes in Action, a program facing the best college teams around the world night after night, sharing a message of community and wholeness, and developing into one of the winningest exhibition teams in the history of basketball. Crowell dreamed of a basketball camp that would train athletes to win both on and off the court. He wanted a program that would provide the best basketball training; create an atmosphere of encouragement, hard work, respect and compassion; and teach athletes to compete not only physically but with their hearts and mind. So he founded NBC Camps in 1971 (now the largest overnight basketball camp in the USA) and Sports Leadership in 2004. Fred is also the bestselling author of Meet My Head Coach and a basketball training manual for coaches.
