Coach Carter is a 2005 American sports drama based on a true story and starring Samuel L. Jackson. The film centers on Ken Carter, a high school basketball coach who challenges conventional ideas of success by putting education above winning games.

Returning to Richmond High School, Carter takes over a struggling basketball team plagued by poor discipline and academic failure. He introduces strict rules and requires players to sign contracts committing to academic excellence and respectful behavior. When the team begins to win but fails to meet academic standards, Carter locks the gym and suspends all practices and games—sparking controversy among parents, school officials, and the community.

Despite intense backlash, Carter stands firm, believing that basketball scholarships are not guaranteed and that education is the true path out of poverty. Over time, the players come to understand the value of discipline, teamwork, and self-respect.

Coach Carter delivers a powerful message about mentorship and accountability. It shows that real victory lies not in championships, but in preparing young people to succeed in life beyond the court.
