Support Keep It Player Youth Basketball

My name is Reginald Lewis or Coach Lewis to some, and I’m the founder and coach of Keep It Player, a new LLC dedicated to giving young people in our community a real shot at learning the game of basketball. After 14 years of coaching at every level—from recreation leagues to AAU and school teams—I’ve seen firsthand how much the fundamentals matter, and how many kids don’t have access to the resources or guidance they need to truly develop their skills. That’s why I started Keep It Player: to fill that gap and offer a fun, energetic, and educational experience for kids who want to learn and grow through basketball.

This year, we’re aiming to serve 50-100 kids, providing them with equipment, uniforms, and the support they need to participate fully. The funds raised will help cover daily expenses, operating fees, and the costs of running a quality program. Our mission is to make sure every child who wants to play can do so, regardless of their background or financial situation. With your support, we can help these young athletes build confidence, learn teamwork, and reach for new heights—on and off the court.

Your contribution will directly impact the lives of local youth, giving them the chance to experience the joy and discipline of basketball in a positive, supportive environment. Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us keep the game alive for the next generation.
