Originally from Morrisville, Pennsylvania, which is just 30 minutes north of Philadelphia and across the Delaware River from New Jersey, Coach Arruda was immersed in high level basketball culture his whole life. 

He played collegiately at McDaniel College, where he was a 2 year starter and team leader on the defensive end. His decision to play was based solely on the idea of becoming a future basketball coach. With Coaching always on his mind, as soon as he graduated, he was offered the opportunity to be the Graduate Assistant at Marymount University here in Arlington, Virginia. He took this opportunity and partnered it with his wealth of Camp experience at The Hoop Group and sought out to build a grassroots basketball program as well. 

Now, after two strong years at Marymount and embodying both sweat equity and the growth mindset, Arruda’s Basketball Club has an awesome coaching staff alongside Coach Arruda and serves 130+ Youth Student-Athletes in the Arlington, Virginia area.

Coach Arruda has an admiral approach and dedication to player development and his endless drive to make those around him better is remarkable. There is no question when it comes to the lengths that Josh will go to in order to help others be successful, both on and off the court.
