Our Vision: Columbia's Basketball Home
We're building more than a facility - we're creating Columbia's basketball heart. A place where every kid has access to quality courts, coaching, and community.
🚧 Currently in planning and fundraising phase
What We're Building
A state-of-the-art, three-court basketball facility designed with community, safety, and accessibility at its heart.
A True Basketball Home
No more scrambling for gym time or driving across town. One central location where Columbia's basketball community can thrive.
Built for Development
Every detail designed with player development in mind - from court dimensions to lighting to family viewing areas.
Community-Centered
More than courts - a gathering place where families connect, kids grow, and the love of basketball brings everyone together.
Why Columbia Needs This
Right now, Columbia families face a frustrating reality: limited court time, high costs, and no central hub for basketball development. Kids with talent and passion are held back not by lack of ability, but by lack of access.
Our facility will change that. Three professional courts means consistent practice time. Family-friendly pricing means cost won't be a barrier. Community programming means every child - regardless of skill level or family income - has a place to learn, play, and belong.
This isn't just about basketball. It's about giving Columbia's youth a foundation for success in life.
