We have been always participated in “Yes I Can” basketball since 2014. Griffin Shaw is SUCH an incredible human and LOVES these kids so much. He and the coaches teach respect, gratitude for your parents, teamwork, and also have a life lesson talk after each session. These coaches take time to show your kids how to play basketball, stopping in the middle or scrimmages to show the kids where they could improve and what they are doing right. I LOVE this!
As competitive as AAU is and the foul language I hear from kids and Coaches, this is THE RIGHT way to teach your kids the fundamentals of basketball right out of the gate.
I would go NOWHERE else. My son only played Yes I Can as I didn’t want him exposed to the craziness of AAU and to kill his spirit. Boy was that the best decision I have ever made.
You won’t regret signing up for their weekly camps, personal Training with Griffin, and weekend basketball leagues. They cover it all.
Most of all I love that many of the coaches are strong in with faith and come back over the Summer to teach the kids. These kids play college or overseas ball and WANT to come work at Yes I Can because the environment is SO positive and welcoming at any level.
My son is now 15. Is a fantastic basketball player. Made the middle school team twice and ISN’T a ball hog (which I can’t stand). Those are the values YIC teaches.
You won’t regret signing your son or daughter up for this amazing program! Love...
Read moreWe absolutely LOVE YesICan! This was our boys’ first time in this league. Coach Shaw and ALL of the coaches are first-class. They give awesome motivational talks/life lessons, before and after games. During warm-ups, they really push the kids and give them tips w/their skills. I like that the music they play is clean AND on a lower setting, so the kids can hear the whistle and buzzers. After having been to Carolina Courts for years, we’ll never go back there. There really is no comparison between the two. You can really see that Coach Shaw and the others genuinely care about what they’re doing, and put 100% effort with an excellent attitude every single time....
Read moreMy son has been playing in Yes I Can for about 4 years now and this program has really helped develop his game a lot. The camps/leagues are very well structured and have amazing coaches that help teach the kids the right way to play. They make it a fun environment while still teaching the fundamentals in a way that the kids can have fun and learn. Coach Griffin has been one of the best coaches that we have ever had, he knows how to keep the kids motivated on and off the court, which is a very positive thing for these kids as they are in the early learning staging. My son loves these camps and keeps wanting to go back to play...
