Community-funded since day one
Valley Titans is a youth basketball club built on volunteer coaches and donated gym time. We keep dues low on purpose, and we cover them entirely for families who can't swing it. That only works because people give.
Building athletes. Building character. Building community.
At Valley Titans Youth Basketball Club, our mission is to inspire, develop, and empower young athletes through the game of basketball. We are committed to providing a positive, competitive, and family-oriented environment where every player is encouraged to grow in skill, confidence, discipline, and character.
We believe basketball is more than a game. It is an opportunity to teach teamwork, leadership, accountability, and perseverance. Our coaches are dedicated to mentoring each athlete, helping them reach their full potential both on and off the court.
As a nonprofit organization, we strive to create opportunities for every child to learn, compete, and belong. At Valley Titans, we are building more than athletes. We are building confident young leaders, lifelong friendships, and a community that feels like family.
A single season for one player costs the club about $400 once you add up gym rental, referees, league registration, uniforms, and travel to tournaments. We charge families a fraction of that, and nothing at all when a family tells us they're stretched.
Nobody here draws a salary, and we don't own a gym. It's coaches taking the 6am rental slot because that's the one we can afford, and parents driving four kids who aren't theirs. Donations close the gap between what families can pay and what a season actually costs.
Here's what the money actually covers.
Practice balls take a beating. We replace a dozen a year.
Reversible jersey, shorts, and warm-up shirt for one player.
Two practice slots a week for one team at our rented gym.
Covers fees, gear, and travel for one player, start to finish.
We take donations through Zelle. No fees, no middleman. Every cent reaches the club.
Suggested amounts. Any amount helps.
