Coach James Aquino

James Aquino was also a product of the CYDC program where he played & attended the skills camps for several years, including time on the travel team before moving on to university. His athletic career continued at the University of Calgary as a member of the Dinos Varsity Track & Field team, excelling in sprints and jumps before later competing in multi-events, such as the decathlon and heptathlon. Throughout his university career, James consistently trained and competed at a high level, facing elite athletes from across the country.

Alongside his studies, James worked as a Dinos Youth Facilitator, coaching and running programs that developed athletic skills and coordination in young athletes.

While track and field became his competitive focus during university, basketball has always been James’s passion and outlet. Now, returning to CYDC as a coach, his goal is to share his knowledge and experience with the next generation of players helping them grow, chase their dreams, and reach their full potential on and off the court.
