MPOWR Culture is intentional about sowing seeds to help impact athletes’ lives and change the basketball culture. Our organization is committed to the personal development of athletes, both on and off the court. Through youth basketball programs and events, athletes gain an arsenal of tools to use that strengthen their social and emotional wellness. After 10 years of developing and mentoring athletes, our community is excited about the deeper dive into our initiatives.
COMMUNITY INITIATIVES
Youth Social Events
A series of regular interactive events that target social development, identity awareness, & mental fortitude. These events speak directly to & make plain the social and mental challenges kids face. Nestled under this umbrella is our interest discovery series, mentorship program, and etiquette dinners. MPOWR's mentoring is about establishing connectivity & maintaining long-lasting relationships.
Youth & Sport Industry Experts
A community favorite is the round tables and panels between youth and sport industry experts. These events allow young athletes to discuss their struggles, talk about their goals, and hear other athlete’s story. Round tables and panels help young athletes navigate their own journey, providing so much knowledge and perspective. Our round tables and panels allow youth to connect with other valuable resources.
Training Sponsorships
Training sponsorship allows athletes to continue to gain a larger vision of themselves and reminds them that their economic status doesn't dictate their destination. Athletes have the opportunity to thrive despite their lack of resources. Our mission is to alleviate the financial obligation of player development. Sponsorship helps give young athletes a sense of worth, competence, and the ability to move forward in their basketball career successfully.
