This event the Raptors hosted for the NBYMP was absolutely amazing. Just being able to witness these children and young... adults have the time of their lives at a Raptors game and watching them cheer their little hearts out was a joy to watch. We sat beside a young man who made a sign for Scottie Barnes and was cheering him on is what this is all about, youth seeing what is possible for them and to have these extraordinary athletes be their role models. After the event Khem Birch took the time out of his day to answer some of the questions the kids had, and it was amazing to see how impactful that was for them. This event was an overall joy, and we are looking forward to seeing these kinds of events run in the future.read more

My kids 14yrs old girl and 11yrs old son both participated at one of their workshops in the summer of 2019 and they... both absolutely loved everything about it. I will definitely recommend these workshops for kids of any age boys/girls as it's very interactive and very hands on for all participants.

My son took part in the weekend session in Sarnia. It was held in the most amazing new gym at Lambton College. The... basketball skills and drills were key in improving a players performance. He was very well impressed by the financial and nutritional seminars. The coaches brought a high level of skill that he has not learned before. They challenged him to think outside the box and view things in a way he had never thought of.Each and every player felt like they were a part of a team and played as a team.Very highly recommended for any skill level.5 starsread more

My daughter did her first girls-only NBYMP weekend workshop and can't wait for the next one. She came away so inspired... by the speakers and couldn't say enough about the coaching. She told us it's the best basketball coaching that she's ever had! Lots of outstanding play strategy from coaches who play or played professionally. Great tips and encouragement. And the fact that all the coaches at the girls-only workshop were women? This meant the world to her. What outstanding role models! Thank you, NBYMP!!!read more

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the NBYMP Organization and their coaches for an amazing basketball camp... this past weekend at St. Lawerence College. As Axl’s basketball coach I always try to seek opportunities for him to learn new skill sets from other coaches. The NBYMB gave him the opportunity to learn from local talents Jaz Bains and Jackie Rodgerson whom we seen play at Queen’s University and St. Lawerence College respectfully. The in class workshops Axl enjoyed as well and will definitely make him a more rounded and better player on and off the court. As a 9 year old basketball player, Axl has a lot of passion for the game and this past weekend definitely added to that. Keep up the great work and see you next year!read more

My 16 year old attended this workshop. At this age it’s less likely for teens to attend any camps or workshops from our... experiences but I am so glad we signed up! There is so much information provided and the one on one time is well worth it. The Coaches and staff are so nice and supportive. They really spend one on one time with each individual and really help to improve their skills. Thank you NBYMP for everything you do!read more

To those who don't know Kevin Wilson.Kevin does fantastic work teaching and mentoring his young basketball players.... They learn to work together as a team, they take turns setting up and calling plays, they learn to understand the other teams weaknesses and how to capitalize on them. Kelvin invites experienced athletes who speak to the team regarding diet, exercising, mental preparedness and teamwork.Kelvin is one of a kind, his word and handshake have meaning, a true leader of tomorrow.Our meeting and partnering was no accident. I look forward to working with Kevin for years to come.Good luck in Scotland.Michael Boltmanread more

It was great to get NBYMP into Brockville to work with our players. every kid I talked to said they loved every second... of the camp. Touching on different, useful topics made it stand out from the normal skill camps. The coaches were young leaders and had the same goals as the kids at the camp when they were that age. Would recommend any organization bringing in Kevin and his team.read more

The weekend workshop was absolutely fantastic. My son was asking to go again before we even left the parking lot. This program is unique in that there is a strong emphasis on healthy development both on and off the court. The education component is comprehensive and engaging. There were plenty of challenging drills, great games and scrimmage opportunities. The coaches were incredible role models with many positive messages to share throughout the weekend. They had endless energy and enthusiasm and a wonderful rapport with the kids”

The weekend basketball workshop was amazing!! I had two of my sons participate (5 and 8 years of age) and they both had so much fun, gained new skills, confidence and lifelong connections. The team of mentors and coaches go above and beyond to make sure everyone’s need are met. They provided a thorough program of training and education and kept all of the participants engaged throughout. It was inspiring to see a true “team” at work! They are great mentors and role models.

Aren Ayres

My son attended a camp this past week end, and came home so excited. This camp opened his eyes to other areas of being an athlete. It also helped with self awareness and confidence. The staff continued to remind kids to hold their heads high. Also, he came home with new skills to work on. We will definitely be attending again! Highly recommended. Great job
