"We strive to channel the energies and talents of our youths into constructive and challenging activities"
The Oakland Rebels Youth Basketball Club is a non-profit organization, founded in 1987 to help kids develop both academic and social skills, as well as their basketball skills. We emphasize the "Student" in our organization. Our emphasis is essentially the participants academic performance as we require the kids to maintain a high GPA in order to participate in our athletic program. We provide our student athletes with services such as academic tutors and mentors in both school and life.
The Oakland Rebels is not only responsible for influencing many similar programs in the general Bay Area, but also for impacting the lives of hundreds of young men and women in and around our community whom otherwise would have no access to a program that is geared towards their success.
The Oakland Rebels strive to help our participants in achieving an academic level that will help them with college admissions and be eligible for a college scholarship through athletics.
