Help Us Build Tomorrow's Champions

Your Support Makes a Difference

For over 11 years, the Monterey Bay Wizards Basketball Academy has been more than just a basketball program—we're a community. Under the leadership of Coach Jim Rimando, who brings 38+ years of coaching experience, we've helped hundreds of young athletes develop not just basketball skills, but life skills: discipline, teamwork, leadership, and confidence.

Your donation helps us:

Keep registration fees affordable for all families

Provide equipment and uniforms for players in need

Offer scholarships for families facing financial hardship

Maintain our program's quality and community impact

Support volunteer training programs (referees, coaches)

Host tournaments and community events

Where Your Donation Goes

Every dollar supports our mission to serve youth in Monterey County, regardless of their ability to pay. We've sent 6+ players to college basketball programs, but more importantly, we've helped hundreds of young people become better students, teammates, and community members.

“Playing for the Wizards was awesome. The coaches taught me to work hard and believe in myself more.”
