Philadelphia Youth Basketball

Philadelphia Youth Basketball (PYB) leverages the iconic game of basketball to deliver life-changing opportunities and experiences. Our programming model is an innovative, holistic approach to youth development that extends far beyond the game. Through a dynamic blend of basketball, mentorship, leadership development, academic enrichment, creative workshops, and wellness programming, PYB provides young people with transformative opportunities to grow on and off the court—and beyond the game itself.

Built of, by, for, and with the communities we serve, PYB provides a safe, nurturing environment for young people to build the skill-sets and mindsets they need to succeed on the court and in their education, careers, and lives.​ ​ We envision a Philadelphia in which all youth are supported, empowered, uplifted, and thriving. As a leader in youth self-determination and workforce development, PYB will play a key role in fulfilling this vision, driving sustained, positive, generational change in the lives of young people and our communities.
