The Den Basketball Club was founded in 2023, with a vision to provide a positive and psychologically safe environment for kids to learn to play and love the game of basketball. In 2024, we debuted its first high school travel team and commenced the steep learning curve to administer the program, sourcing gym time and uniforms, coaching players (and parents at times), the additional logistics of getting the team and players registered with AAU, interfacing with various tournament organizations and their politics. As challenging as it was, we loved the kids and program so much that we organized and supported our 2025 high school team, formalized the club as a non-profit organization registered as a 501(c)3, and have stepped into small group trainings for youth in grades 4 to 12.

Beginning early 2026, we will offer curriculum based enrichment programs for charter and public school students, and organize a 3 on 3 league. Why 3 on 3? Because it's where player development absolutely happens. Players learn spacing, get more touches on the ball, and it affords them more opportunities to improve decision making. 3 on 3 provides everything to create real basketball players on the court much faster.
