Neal Charles
ELEMENTARY BOYS BASKETBALL HEAD COACH
First and foremost I am a Christian, passionately grateful to my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ and continuously blessed by Him. Without Him life is void of any truly good thing. One of the GREAT things he has blessed me with is my family, wife Alicia, sons Caleb, Ben, & Jacob, and daughter Macy. Another gift he has given me is the hobby of basketball, which I have played since I was 8 years old. I played in the private school league growing up, including a homeschool team from 10th-12th grade. It is an extreme blessing to watch my kids grow in Christ and enjoy the opportunity to participate in programs, such as the Defenders, that not only fosters growth in an athletic sense, but emphasizes growth in Christ as the priority over all others.
