A member of Milton High School’s 1996 state championship basketball team, Lamar was inducted into Milton High School’s Athletic Hall of Fame in 2007 and his high school team was enshrined in 2010. Lamar Reddicks is in his twelfth year here at Milton Academy as varsity boys’ basketball coach and also serves as the director of athletics, his roots in the town of Milton run deep. We’d like to say thank you to everyone who has supported our program! The pieces of the puzzle are coming together quickly and hopefully translate into a long and successful run for Milton Academy. This is a very exciting time in our program. “It’s great to see how the younger kids look up to our players both literally and figuratively,” says Coach Reddicks. This creates a special bond between both sets of kids who benefit from these projects.
Later in the season the team will also host these kids at a home game and invite them to be a part of the pre-game activities. We will run a basketball clinic for kids and also go into the Boston and read books to students in grades K–4. The team commits to several community service projects throughout the season. We view these beliefs as a roadmap for better decision-making and deeper, more meaningful experiences for our team. The job of the coaching staff here at Milton Academy is to mold our basketball team into a family and teach players to handle not only the successes but also failures on the court and in life. “Surround yourself around good people and great things happen.” That has been the motto around the program and you can see it in true form if you’ve ever spent time around Coach Lamar Reddicks and his program.
Achieving school record breaking success over the past few seasons this program is one that is truly on the rise in New England. The Milton Academy boys’ basketball program competes in the one of the nation’s deepest and most talented leagues.
