 The El Camino College athletics department appointed John Hall as the first head coach of the inaugural women's flag football team in 2025.

The team will begin as a club program in 2026 with the intention to become the 19th athletics program at ECC in 2027.

"I'm exuberant about the opportunity to lead the women's flag football program," said Hall. "I'm committed to establishing the pathway our community's young women deserve in the continued development of women's sports. I am very thankful for this opportunity."

Hall brings more than 20 years of community-college coaching and teaching experience, along with several years mentoring athletes in youth and high-school sports. A former football and track-and-field athlete at Long Beach City College and UCLA, Hall earned All-American honors in track and field at UCLA.

He spent seven years as an assistant coach at LBCC with the football team and eight years as head coach of the track and field program, guiding multiple CCCAA State Champions and producing numerous Top-10 All-Time performances.

In addition, Hall served 12 years as an assistant coach with the track and field team at El Camino College, specializing in sprints, relays, and hurdles, where his technical expertise helped athletes achieve conference titles and state-level recognition. His long tenure in the California community college system has established him as a respected educator, mentor, and program builder.

"As the first head coach of the El Camino women's flag Football program, I am committed to cultivating a championship culture that empowers female athletes, advances leadership opportunities, and sets a new standard for excellence within community-college athletics," Hall added.

A proud South Bay community member, Hall resides in Hawthorne with his wife Adrienne, their two sons; Jett (11) and Beau (6), and dog Zeus.
