Dear Organization:

I am interested in obtaining a satisfying career as a Basketball Coach utilizing my talents and experience with the possibility of advancement. I would be anxious to learn what opportunities might be afforded someone of my talents and experience by your organization.

I have worked in Professional Basketball most of my career. I have handled the management and various responsibilities that accompany running a Basketball Management & Marketing Company. During that time I would handle all aspects of daily operations, from recruiting players from all over the United States to coaching basketball teams as the need arose. I have assisted in the management of camps and tours, as well as studying potential players that could be advantageous to the team. I have been both overseas as well as throughout the United States recruiting players and helping to fine-tune our playing team as needed. I believe I could transfer these talents to your company and be a great asset in helping to achieve your competitive objectives.

While attending Rochville University I received the Award of Excellence in Sports Management, and the Certificate of Distinction in Advanced Sports Finance. I am familiar with both Sports Operation and Management, and have worked with people of all backgrounds. I am honest, dependable, and an excellent team player. I would be anxious to demonstrate my abilities to your company.

Enclosed is my resume with specifics on my talents and experience. Please examine it carefully and determine how I can best be of service to your organization. I look forward to hearing from you,

Sincerely

Adam Harris
