OUR APPROACH
We use the game of basketball to increase youth engagement. Our first approach begins with creating camps and clinics that have powerful mentorship intertwined, helping athletic players succeed on the court AND OFF the court in everyday life, encouraging them to make right choices. Create camps and clinics that give athletes the ability to train with coaches that can steer them in a positive direction through guidance and wisdom w/ intentionality and care.
Our second approach includes creating academic programs in which students are able to learn real-world life skills that prepare them for their future careers. Create academic summer camps and programs that align with school district academic goals (reading, writing, math, public speaking). Create academic summer camps and programs that give students a head-start after the summer is finished. (We use sports-themed curriculum to teach youth.)
Our final approach incorporates biblical principles that teach youth about good character and integrity.
