East Side Basketball Club

Mission Statement

The East Side Escalades' mission is to help New York City youth grow into strong young men and women, both on and off the court. On the court, this will be accomplished through the development of personal accountability, sportsmanship and athletic skill. Our coaches promote selflessness and the importance of working with others; playing well with teammates and being a positive member of the team are crucial to us. Beyond the court, academic success is a key component of our program. Winning is valued, but developing a proper attitude and instilling core life values is of the utmost importance.
