We strive to develop and refine the individual skill-sets of our basketball players in a manner that also develops life skills to be utilized off the basketball court as well as on.

We recognize that how people feel about themselves often dictates their behavior, as children and as adults. We get our kids to see the unique and oftentimes unexplored potential they each possess by expanding their comfort zones, performing beyond their expectations, and having them reach the heights of their capacities, whatever they may be.

We also recognize that many people, children included, do not enjoy the effort associated with the process of altering a mentality of contentment with the status quo. Our kids will understand that our commitment to them is not conditional, our belief in them is not illusory. We help them uncover an untapped confidence level that they can draw upon in future endeavors and challenges.

In this way, the kids justifiably feel great about themselves, and the feeling is invested into their lives indefinitely. Many of the original Fighting Davids have become leaders in their respective communities, and they uniformly tell us that their experience in the program has been instrumental in the heights they have achieved, and in the manner in which they conduct their personal lives. We have every reason to believe that the current crop of Fighting Davids will continue to live up to the standards of excellence previously established.
