RBC offers a supportive, close knit campus environment where academic excellence and personal development are prioritized, and its athletic programs reflect the same commitment to growth and achievement.
The College is now entering its third season of women's basketball and has already emerged as a national contender-finishing National Runner Up in NJCAA Division II in its inaugural season. As a member of the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) and Region 10, RBC continues to build a strong reputation for competitive excellence.
Richard Bland College is seeking a dynamic and visionary Head Women's Basketball Coach to lead its nationally recognized program.
