Again, a more serious ankle injury had Coach Claramunt take another turn in the basketball world. It was then that he started his adventure as a coach. His very first coaching job was the Junior Varsity Girls and Freshman Boys teams at the high school he graduated from and played for, Birmingham Groves. After three seasons at Groves, He then spent 2 seasons coaching at Coronado High School in Henderson Nevada. He then came back home to Troy Athens High School and became the Varsity Assistant for the Boy’s basketball team.

After 3 years at Troy Athens and a District Championship, Coach Claramunt was finally able to live his dream. He became Assistant Men’s Basketball Coach at Schoolcraft College. After one season at Schoolcraft, Coach Claramunt has returned to Troy Athens as an assistant.
