Giving Tuesday (Nov. 28th) is a global day of giving that inspires people to collaborate and celebrate generosity. Join the movement today and donate within your own means to help support The Basketball Embassy's mission.

By contributing today, you support the development of Assembly '24 and the Youth Ambassador Program (YAP)

About Assembly: We experienced a brief, unavoidable hiatus due to the impact of COVID, but we're thrilled to announce the return of Assembly in 2024. Assembly brings together select basketball players and coaches from around the world, aiming to foster a diverse cultural exchange. Players and coaches from approximately 11 different nations will participate, creating an environment that not only facilitates the exchange of basketball knowledge and passion but also celebrates diverse cultures spanning several continents. Male and female players will receive instruction at Assembly 2024 in both team and individual settings from coaches worldwide. This comprehensive experience will not only enhance their skills as players but also contribute to their personal development in an increasingly interconnected global community.

About YAP: The Youth Ambassador Program is currently active at Haven for Hope and SAMMinistries. Our program seeks to reach disadvantaged youth, imparting life lessons in an environment where they are most receptive: the basketball court. YAP aims to instill positive habits in our Youth Ambassadors today, with the goal of enabling them to seize every opportunity that comes their way in the future.

It is up to all of us to recognize that we are constantly an ambassador to something. Our actions and words not only effect how others view us as individuals, but how they view all of the things we are associated with as well. Like it or not, stereotypes exist in this world. We firmly believe that we all have an obligation to create a positive stereotype for what a "basketball player" represents. Playing basketball makes you an ambassador to the game, and we strive to create ambassadors who will be passionate students, operating with a genuine integrity, dependability, honesty, and compassion for all - both on and off the court.

We take great pride in providing basketball instruction and guidance to players, coaches and organizations alike. We preach substance over style and teamwork over individual acclaim. We believe full potential is only achieved through a balance of skills and knowledge, and we're thrilled for every kid we can help reach that potential on the court. But the real satisfaction comes when we see our players truly "get it" - the principles they learn through basketball extend to life in general. These lessons aren't just meant to make for better players; they make for better people. Every time we accomplish this, our mission has truly been achieved.
