We are thrilled to announce that Quincy Caldwell, widely known as Coach Q, has been appointed as the new head coach of the Rosemount Irish Basketball Program. With a remarkable career spanning over 13 years as an accomplished basketball coach and 20 years as a personal trainer, Coach Q brings an unparalleled level of expertise and dedication to Rosemount.

Throughout his career, Coach Q has earned recognition as Coach of the Year, led teams to section finals and conference championships, and trained elite players who have advanced to play in the NBA. His coaching acumen has also made him a sought-after lead trainer for professional basketball camps across Texas, Georgia, California, and Florida.

In a June 2023 interview with CBS, Coach Q emphasized his deep commitment to his players, stating, "My players can call me at any time. I have a genuine love for them, and if I can get them ready for life, I am happy."

As he steps into his new role with the Rosemount Irish, Coach Q is focused on developing character, basketball skills, and discipline in young athletes, ensuring they have a solid foundation by the time they reach high school. He is eager to collaborate with the Rosemount Athletic Association (RAA) and youth coaches to build a championship-caliber program.

The 24-25 basketball season is just around the corner and as the new Rosemount Irish Boys Basketball Coach, he will continue to foster academic success, develop a team identity, improve players skill level, prepare students for the next phase of their life, promote multi-sport athletes, engage with the community and instill a life-long love for the game of basketball with the student-athletes involved in Rosemount Basketball.

Outside of basketball, Coach Q has a strong passion for cars, movies, and airplanes, bringing the same level of enthusiasm and dedication to all his interests.
