Ramón Fernández Vidal (born 19 September 1969), known as Moncho Fernández, is a Spanish basketball head coach. He is nicknamed as The Alchemist.[1] He holds the record for the most number of consecutive seasons in the same ACB team, having coached Obradoiro CAB for 13 seasons in Liga ACB. Moncho was the head coach of Obradoiro CAB from 2010 to 2024. He is widely regarded as the best Galician basketball head coach of all time.
Coaching career
[edit]Moncho started his coaching career with Moncho López as the assistant coach of Gijón Baloncesto in 2000. After the relegation of the club from Liga ACB in the 2001–02, he took the lead of the club during the next two seasons.
In 2005, Moncho came back to Liga ACB, again as assistant of Moncho López, this time to Leche Río Breogán. He left the club after a new relegation, for joining CB Villa de Los Barrios, of the LEB Oro league, as head coach.[2] He qualified the Andalusians to a LEB Oro Final Four in 2009. Just after being defeated in the semifinals, the club would be dissolved and consequently, Moncho left it.
In 2009, Moncho debuted in ACB with CB Murcia, but he would leave the club in December 2009, after earning only two wins in eleven games.[3]
After one year without managing any team, on 2 July 2010, Moncho signed with his home city team Obradoiro CAB.[4] In his first season, he promoted the Galician team to the Liga ACB after winning the 2011 LEB Oro Playoffs.
He qualified Obradoiro for the 2013 ACB Playoffs, but was eliminated in the first round by Real Madrid.
In 2016, Moncho coached Obradoiro CAB in the Copa del Rey de Baloncesto.
In 2018, Moncho coached Obradoiro CAB in the Supercopa de España de Baloncesto.
In 2023, Moncho coached Obradoiro CAB in the Basketball Champions League.
Moncho left Obradoiro CAB on 16 May 2024.
