JLT Fieldhouse- Mentoring Leaders


JLT Fieldhouse, Inc. is named after my late father, Sgt. Major Joe Lewis Thompson, USMC, who inspired me to not only talk about my dreams, but to follow them. He served 30 years in the United States Marine Corps, with two tours in Vietnam. Since he lost his battle with Leukemia in 1996, I have worked to honor his legacy of giving back.

JLT Fieldhouse, Inc. is a nonprofit 501c3 organization with the mission of "Coaching and Mentoring the Leaders of Tomorrow".  We offer year round intense one-on-one and team-oriented basketball training as well as lessons in leadership, teamwork, goal setting and overcoming obstacles for boys and girls ages 6-17.  While we primarily focus on the basics of the game of basketball, we also work on developing cross-over athletic skills, building self-esteem and stressing the value of team success over individual achievement. Our major contributions to the community are mentoring and coaching of life skills, and establishing an Innovation Center and a scholarship foundation to provide educational assistance to JLT Fieldhouse participants and nonparticipants alike.
