Vehans Ayvazi
Founder / CEO
Known to many as “Coach V”, Vehans founded LA Select in 2011 and is its current Program Director. Leveraging LA Select’s success in travel basketball, he founded Jr Hoops in 2023 and serves as CEO.
Coach V grew up in Burbank, California and attended Burbank High School, where he played basketball. With over 13 years of coaching experience, he continues to make a positive impact in the community through the game.
His leadership emphasizes not only the growth of players on the court but also fostering a sense of community and family within the program. That enduring commitment to excellence makes Coach V an integral part of both LA Select’s and Jr Hoops’ legacy.
Coach V is a huge Lakers fan, holds an undergraduate degree from Cal Poly Pomona, and attended Georgia Tech for graduate school. When he’s not in a basketball gym, you’ll find the father of two boys spending time with family.
