Comprehensive Investor Pitch & Curriculum Framework
Phase 1 Ask: $150,000 Seed Capital
"More than just a game."
A premier, for-profit basketball academy that combines elite athletic training with a structured life-skills curriculum, culminating in a fully-integrated charter school.
Current market options are either expensive "elite" teams that burn kids out or recreational leagues with low-quality coaching. Parents pay high costs without quality assurance.
Parents want ROI in discipline and leadership. Traditional programs focus solely on sweat.
Fact: Many employers report young people lack critical soft skills.
High-quality training is fragmented. Parents drive to a gym for sports and a tutor for development. No one-stop-shop currently exists.
The Screen Time Crisis: Children average 7+ hours daily on devices. Parents are desperate for meaningful activities that build real-world skills.
Progression from after-school programming to a fully-integrated Charter School where basketball and academics merge.
Minimizing upfront capital while systematically scaling toward a basketball-centered charter school.
