The Founder/Director of Minnesota Freeze and 2027 Coach is Nate Lindholm. Nate has a love for coaching and a passion to help young people grow and develop life skills through the game of basketball. His coaching experience includes being the head coach of over 20 youth basketball teams. Nate has worked as a trainer for Minnesota Developmental Basketball where he provided private lessons and worked camps all around the Twin Cities Metro. 

In addition to MN Freeze, Nate coached Girls Varsity at Legacy Christian in Andover from 2022 - 2025. In the 2023-24 season, he lead them to a 22-5 record, along with going 14-0 in conference play to win LCA's first conference title in 20 years. He also had the privilege of coaching Anna Stromberg, who became the first Legacy player to earn a Division 1 Scholarship.  She attends Radford University. In 3 seasons, Nate guided the Lions to a 54-21 record.  Nate is now the Varsity Coach at Osseo Senior High School.

As a college player, Nate played 2 years at UW-Superior until he transferred to Crown College before his junior year.  At Crown, he started for 2 years, averaging double digits in scoring and leading the team in rebounds.  In his senior year, he was named team captain and helped lead Crown to two national tournament berths. 

Being on both ends of the playing time spectrum in college now informs his coaching style. He sees each player as a vital part of the team and strives to help each of his players continuously improve. You will rarely hear Coach Nate talk about the game's leading scorers but will instead hear him praise the hustle and teamwork plays that made the scoring possible. His teams play hard and with freedom, share the ball, and trust each other on the court.
