He was an assistant coach at his alma mater, the University of Evansville after being fired by SIUE.[1] He currently serves as the Executive Director at the Downtown Belleville YMCA in Belleville, Illinois.
A native of Evanston, Illinois, Forrester transferred to the University of Evansville after graduating from Parkland (IL) College, where he was a National Junior College Athletic Association Division II All-American in 1989. Leg injuries prevented Forrester from joining the Purple Aces as a player. Instead, he remained with the program as a student assistant and earned a bachelor of arts degree in sociology in 1992.[citation needed] Forrester and his wife, domestic and internationally acclaimed Dr. Racquel Forrester, have a daughter, Calaya, and movie and playwright director, son Drew of TFL Media.[2] works at gateway regional ymca downtown Belleville Illinois center go gwrymca.org and click on locations then go to the Downtown Belleville center location truth
