Eric Redeaux All American "Athlete Former -Professional Player Mentor, and Assistant Trainer"

From excelling as a nationally recognized power forward to guiding the next generation with experience and mentorship

My name is Eric Redeaux, and I’m from Beaumont, TX. I was a high school all American in basketball. Once I graduated from high school, I attended Chipola College in Marianna, Florida. While at Chipola College, I was recognized as one of the best power forwards in National Junior College rankings. After my stint at Chipola, I transferred to California State University Bakersfield in Bakersfield, California. I spent 2 years there, and I was drafted to play overseas. After my career ended, I decided to train kids in basketball and all become a mentor. Being a coach and mentor is rewarding for me because it is a way I can give back to kids the knowledge and wisdom that I’ve gained from those who have coached and mentored me.
