Where top-class leadership and high-level basketball development meet. We develop LEADERS! 🫡
About us
The rise of the current youth basketball system continues to present a challenge to the proper development of basketball skills, team mentality, and life skills obtained through the participation in Sport. The excessive pressure on young athletes to search visibility and rankings as early as age 8 is counter to understanding the game of basketball and the preparation of young people for adulthood. More often than not, athletes are overtly guided to seek individual glory rather than valuing their leadership. Furthermore, today’s children and families are facing the societal challenges of childhood obesity, Cyberbullying and social/political division. While basketball skills development is relevant, the development of confidence and resilience have become more critical than ever before as a life skill. The Empower ME Academy (EMA) was founded on the principle of being an effective methodology to transcend these growing challenges and be a pathway into more effective skills development Ecosystem. EMA is an elite athletic and academic training environment designed to maximize student- athlete potential within a safe space of support and inclusion. Players of all genders and income levels are immersed in a curriculum and support system of world-class coaching and mentoring that is centered around personal improvement and life lessons. EMA student-athletes are conditioned to act in the interest of the team rather than themselves, as well as understand the importance of character development. They gain perspective of valuing the needs of society and the world around them.
