RBCN SUMMER ZOOM CLINIC SERIES: JUSTIN CLAUS, COLLEGE OF THE REDWOODS (CA)
“TEACHING THROUGH ADVANTAGE BASKETBALL CONCEPTS”

2025 Summer Zoom Clinic Series #3 will feature the new head men’s coach of the College of the Redwoods, Justin Claus. Former College of the Redwoods star shooting-guard Justin Claus is the offensive mind behind the Corsairs Three-Peat Golden Valley Conference titles. After his second season as the offensive architect, Claus was promoted to Associate Head Coach at College of the Redwoods. In his first season as Associate Head Coach, Redwoods made a run to the California Regional Final and the staff was voted CCCMBCA State Coaches of the Year.

Coach Claus has been on the clinic trial throughout America’s beautiful west coast. Justin’s topic, “Teaching through Advantage Basketball Concepts” has become a hot topic amongst the coaches on the west coast. Listening to Coach Claus talk about said topic is a true learning experience. Coach’s knowledge of his expansive topic is most impressive - this is going to be a great clinic.

During his tenure at College of the Redwoods, the Corsairs have led California in assists per game (22.2), been #2 in the state in three pointers made per game (11) and have averaged 85 points per game. Claus has had a crucial role in developing three All-State players at Redwoods, along with five All-Conference players.

Prior to joining Redwoods, Claus served as an assistant coach for the Humboldt State men’s basketball program during the 2018-2019 season. Claus’ contribution to the Lumberjacks program culminated with a birth in the California Collegiate Athletic Association conference tournament.

Prior to his stint at Humboldt State, Claus was an assistant coach for his alma mater at Fortuna High School boys’ varsity basketball team from 2016-2018. Claus’ keen offensive mind and influence was apparent in the success of the Fortuna boys, as they won two-straight league titles and two-straight conference tournament championships. Fortuna’s 30-win season ranks as an all-time high in the history of the Humboldt Del Norte league.
