Coach Mathis created Shining Stars Basketball Academy to provide the foreground to overcome adversity in a nurturing environment, using their athletic ability to enchance their opportunities to reach their goals, while developing positive relationships on and off the court. 

 

SSBA believes in showing our youth that basketball is more than a sport, it is a tool and outlet for young adults to access their full potential through discipline and to attain greater educational possibilities.
