About GRE Basketball
Welcome to Game Ready Evolution Basketball, formally known as Everyone Balls Out Sports Academy! Our non-profit program is designed to provide beginners-intermediate-advanced training and coaching for young basketball players looking to take their game to the next level. Physically our focus is to gradually teach fundamental skills such as shooting, dribbling, passing and defending and applying them in mini-games, exhibitions, tournaments and league play.
Our program reinforces servitude leadership, academic support and enrichment, and opportunities for lifelong success through sports. Our goals are to produce athletes who can play sports at the highest competitive levels and to cultivate strong students and well-rounded citizens. The principle of teamwork is the foundation of all we do and shapes our comprehensive approach to inspiring self-confidence, athletic excellence, academic achievement, and leadership in the youth we serve. We put an emphasis on keeping the youth off the streets by keeping them occupied. Sports progression is key to getting the youth off the streets and away from drugs and gangs. The majority of the kids in our organization are youth who need outlets from the situations they go through outside of sports.
Game Ready Evolution Basketball has coaches with high-level playing experience on the professional and collegiate levels. Each Staff member has years of experience in working with young athletes.
