Mike has volunteered to coach for the Ferndale Recreation Department for 5 years. When asked why he volunteers, Coach Pozolo says:

“I started coaching as a way to get my two boys active in sports. I find coaching to be a rewarding experience and a fun way to be active in the community. It's priceless to see a kid's face light-up after they make their first basket. It's always my goal to make the experience fun for the kids so they come back the next year.”
