In this episode of I Am Refocused Radio, host Shemaiah Reed sits down with Coach William Collins (Head Coach of 210 United Basketball) and Coach Alexis Williams (Head Coach of the Women’s Varsity team) to discuss their transformative approach to youth sports in San Antonio.
Moving beyond just drills and jump shots, the 210 United program focuses on "building the whole athlete"—mind, body, and soul. Coach Collins reveals how the program has expanded to include free mentoring services, community outreach, and even legal representation for athletes navigating NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) deals through a partnership with Zion Sports Agency.
Coach Alexis Williams shares her passion for the rising platform of women’s basketball and the importance of creating a "safe space" for young athletes to grow both on and off the court.
