Academy
Founded by Coach Emmett Whitfield, Whitfield Basketball Academy launched in the summer of 2025 with a bold vision: to revolutionize youth development through the game of basketball—locally in the Bay Area, and on a national and international scale.
Our mission is to use basketball as a powerful platform to shape strong individuals and future leaders, both on and off the court. We are committed to providing an exceptional experience for every athlete, family, and supporter who joins us on this journey.
