JOHNNY CALLAWAY

Johnny Callaway is a native of Newark and became a resident of Bayonne in 1985. He is a volunteer youth basketball coach, who started training and coaching boys in Bayonne in 1995, after coaching and training youth in East Orange and Newark for 15 years. Coach Callaway, affectionately known as (P-O), started training his children, nephews, and young cousins in his backyard on 4th Street. He moved throughout the city training and teaching children.

Coach Callaway volunteered to coach the AAU 15U boys at the Jersey City Boys and Girls Club in 2004, and his club won a State Championship. In the same year, Coach Callaway and friend Glenn Johnson formed an AAU Club, the “Bayonne Mean-Machine Youth Basketball Program.” They went on to win the Hamiton Park High School and Grammar School Championship, marking one of many times that a public school won the “Chip” at Hamilton Park.

Callaway entered his (3) aged-group teams in the Newark Zoo Crew League for 7 years and volunteered to coach and train at The Bayonne PAL for 5 years. The part of coaching and training that Coach cherished the most, was the fact that he did not train just Bayonne youth, but he often added Jersey City and Union City children as well. Coach Callaway also volunteered to be an assistant boys’ basketball coach at Bayonne High School from 2011 until 2014.

Coach Callaway has always given back to our youth, because when he was young, running around the streets of Newark in the sixties, he got into a lot of trouble, and father-figures from sports and the neighborhood businesses assisted him in getting on the right track, and ever since he always had the desire to give back to our youth.

HURLEY FAMILY FOUNDATION

In April 2017 the Archdiocese of Newark announced that they were closing St. Anthony’s High School as of September 2017. Upon receiving this news, the Hurley family and several board members from St. Anthony’s got together to decide what this devastating news meant.  From the ashes came the decision to form the Hurley Family Foundation and begin programs at the Hudson County school gymnasium where the Friars had played games for 17 years.

Just as basketball had been used at St. Anthony’s by Coach Hurley for 50 years, as an avenue to change the trajectory of young people’s lives with hundreds of scholarships to college, a version of this mission began. The plan was to return to the roots of the family commitment to basketball which originated in St. Paul’s Parish in Greenville over 50 years ago. Basketball skill work began with a volunteer group of coaches and over 20 children. It expanded to over 100 young children attending clinics three days a week from September to June.

The Foundation’s board of trustees decided to expand the efforts into other areas.  The Hurley Family Foundation presently sends over 50 boys and girls to camp in the Pocono Mountains each summer. They provide assistance to go to catholic schools in the area and sponsor a golf outing where half of the proceeds go to St. Dominic Academy, the only all girls school remaining in Hudson County. Each year scholarship money is given to both County Prep and High Tech High School graduating seniors. The Foundation is also involved in numerous partnerships locally with other not for profits that fit their local mission.
