Kathy Johnson Basketball Head Coach I'm the youngest of nine, a mom of two, and a wife of 30+ years. I began volunteering with Boerne Blaze in 2017, shortly after our family moved to Boerne and our daughter, Julia joined the basketball team. Currently I'm the head Basketball Coach and a Verified Volunteer, and I enjoy helping whenever possible throughout the year.
Coaching Philosophy As a coach, I strive to provide a fun learning environment. I try to know each athlete, and shine a light on their strengths so that they can develop confidence in the sport and find enjoyment in developing new skills. Each season requires a lot of hard work, time and energy, and I coach not only to have an opportunity to share a sport with our daughter, but because I enjoy seeing athletes grow and realize new skills. Their excitement and happiness on the court is contagious. It’s especially gratifying to see athletes step in and assist each other on the court - we have some natural leaders among us! Our basketball season is possible because we have a team of coaches and volunteers that bring their own creativity and energy to each practice, and I appreciate each one of them. I love staying active and I believe self care and making healthy choices daily is vitally important. I am grateful that Boerne Blaze provides plenty of opportunities to get fit and have fun!
