For the past several years, Brooklyn Basketball has partnered with the New York City Department of Education for a first of its kind program which offers free in-school basketball clinics for elementary and middle school students in Brooklyn. This initiative integrates basketball training into gym classes, emphasizing athletic and leadership skills while spreading a love for the game of basketball. Through the school program, BSE Global reaches more than 200 schools annually across the borough and in addition, Brooklyn Basketball provides community clinics across the borough in conjunction with partner community organizations, impacting approximately 40,000 youth each year
Coming this fall, Brooklyn Basketball will open the doors to a new youth training center, located just across the street from Barclays Center. Brooklyn Basketball Training Center will include two full courts, a “shooting lab” half court, auxiliary baskets, multi-purpose court flooring for other events, as well as cutting-edge technology and expert coaching to further enhance skill development. The new facility will complement Brooklyn Basketball’s existing community programming by offering after-school and weekend training, camps, daily clinics, advanced training, all-girls programs, and other activations.
