Real basketball for everyone...
Real basketball for everyone...
During her years working for staffing and computer training firms, she was responsible for successfully marketing and delivering qualified technical talent and training programs to Fortune 1000 firms. Her HR background allows On The Court to recruit quality coaches and maintain the highest quality staff.
Wendy has a strong entrepreneurial spirit and saw the opportunity to change the paradigm in youth sports clinics. She would bring basketball clinics directly to schools and community centers at the end of the school day. These clinics would provide children a fun, fitness opportunity without any additional travel for kids or parents. This led to the start of what is now On The Court X-perience.
We offer on-site, indoor and outdoor basketball programs in conjunction with local school districts, community centers and other organizations that will enhance their afterschool enrichment programs. All of our programs are designed to inspire young players to get out of the stands and onto the court.
We believe athletics is a vehicle to provide children with an opportunity to grow and create new possibilities in their lives. Our programs build self confidence, improve self image and build character through education. They will develop sportsmanship and athletic integrity, and gain an understanding of the game of basketball. We provide a firm foundation in which children develop strong civic values.
