    We teach our campers life skills in an environment of a basketball summer camp experience.

Our goal is to impact as many of the nation’s underserved youth through our basketball summer camps (provided without a fee). Our impact is a multi-disciplinary approach. As formers players in the NBA, we understand how participating in sports at a young age can have a positive impact in a child’s growth, development and confidence. Michael and I grew up in underserved communities and we benefited from the guidance, coaching and philanthropy of others. Our mission – Each one teaches one, or two or a Camp!

BallStars Youth Camps are offered to kids who aren’t able to afford and/or able to participate in a summer camp experience. Our camps are purposefully located in a centralized and easily accessible location in each city. Drug awareness, age-appropriate financial wellness and anti-bullying campaigns are a few of the topics we focus time, energy and support during this basketball skills training environment.

TEACH CHILDREN TO COMPETE


We believe the best way to build a better tomorrow for the under-served communities nationwide is to build up and inspire those that are living in it on a daily basis. Let’s try to positively impact the children of these communities in a positive way by offering them positive outlets.
