“Empowering athletic coaches to prioritize well-being while crafting winning programs through professional developments and keynote speaking.”
Eddie J. Hamilton, the heart and soul of EJ Hamilton Enterprises LLC, is a figure of inspiration and a beacon of change in the world of sports coaching. His journey, marked by resilience, faith, and relentless pursuit of excellence, forms the foundation of our company.
A native of Shreveport, LA, Coach Hamilton graduated with honors from Booker T Washington High School and holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Physical Education and Health from Northwestern State University, and a Master’s in Educational Leadership from LSU Shreveport. His path has been one of self-discovery in my journey as a coach and now as a speaker and consultant.
A seasoned educator and celebrated basketball coach, Eddie's career is a testament to his dedication and passion for sports. However, his journey wasn't without its challenges. Facing a crisis of integrity and personal hardships, Eddie's path took a transformative turn when he embraced faith and self-reflection. This pivotal moment led him not only to reclaim his life and career but also to excel beyond his expectations.
Under his guidance, his basketball program soared to become one of the top 5 in the state. His personal life, too, saw remarkable rejuvenation, strengthening his family bonds. These accomplishments, however, are just the tip of the iceberg. Eddie's true achievement lies in his ability to turn his experiences into a source of empowerment for other coaches.
