When Christopher Bess was in pre-K, his school held a career day. He dressed as a coach with a whistle, a shirt and a hat to emulate his father, Reginald Bess, the varsity coach for the Tarboro High School boys’ basketball team in North Carolina, per ESPN.
Now, he’s going viral for being known as the “2024 Youth Coach of the Year” and coaching alongside his father.
Before their games, Christopher pumps the team up with a pregame speech. While he may look young, he’s actually wise beyond his years.
His social media page includes other coaching tactics such as leading drills, shuttle runs and breaking from the team huddles.
“When I coach my whole butt off, y’all play y’all whole butt off,” Christopher told the Tarboro Vikings team in a pregame speech.
He is a force to be reckoned with already and we can’t wait too where his life takes him.
