Although there is no minimum education requirement to become a professional basketball coach, the U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics (BLS) states that many coaches start their careers at the high school or collegiate level (www.bls.gov). A bachelor’s degree may be required for these positions. Coaching-related bachelor’s degree programs include physical education or exercise science. You’ll complete coursework in lifetime fitness and wellness, anatomy and physiology, motor development and kinesiology.
