Mission

We focus on teaching young men about the importance of education, hard work and being humble in all aspects of life.

About

For the 2018 year, we've helped over 40 young men between the ages of 16 and 20 from around the US, Canada, Senegal, St. Marteen, Germany, the Netherlands, Turks and Caicos, Bahamas, Nigeria and Serbia. Seven of the young men earned scholarships to attend four year colleges and universities in the US to play basketball. Three of the young men earned scholarships to attend two year colleges and universities in the US to play basketball. We hosted seven showcases throughout the year for CYM Academy as well as for other prep basketball teams and junior college teams to play in front of college coaches and national scouts to help obtain college scholarships. We also hosted two NCAA sanctioned individual showcases for high school, junior college players and international players to play on teams in front of college coaches and national scouts to help obtain college scholarships. We attended 15 tournaments across Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas. We played over 35 games against college teams around Texas and Kansas. We helped 10 young men prepare for and take the ACT and SAT college entrance examinations.
