Tara VanDerveer (born June 26, 1953) has been the Stanford University women's basketball coach since 1985. She led the Stanford Cardinal to two NCAA Women's Division I Basketball Championships: in 1990 and 1992.[1] She stepped away from the Stanford program for a year to serve as the U.S. national team head coach at the 1996 Olympic Games.[1] VanDerveer is the 1990 Naismith National Coach of the Year and a ten-time Pac-10 Coach of the Year. She is also one of only six NCAA Women's Basketball coaches to win at least 800 games.

Her sister Heidi VanDerveer, who coached for several years with the WNBA's Minnesota Lynx and Seattle Storm, now coaches at Occidental College in Los Angeles.

Vanderveer's Olympic team was considered one of the best ever assembled, and complied an 80–0 record over the course of the year, culminating in an gold medal at the Olympics in Atlanta.[1]

VanDerveer was awarded the US Basketball Writers Association (USBWA) Coach of the Year award in 1990.[2]

VanDerveer was awarded the Amos Alonzo Stagg Coaching Award by the United States Sports Academy in 1995.
