Hello,
The Heights thanks you for your interest in sponsoring this year’s growth opportunities! We are a local youth organization based in the Monroe Heights neighborhood of Riviera Beach, Fl that currently features three (3) travel basketball teams, ages 7 -17 in our area; with aspirations of adding cheerleading, and dance programs in the near future.
The Heights was founded in the summer of 2021 at Monroe Heights Park (M.H.P.) with the goal of providing a safe, and positive environment for the youth in the Monroe Heights neignborhood of Riviera Beach, Fl after residents expressed their interest in creating, supporting, and unifying for a common cause. Although we use basketball as a resource and tool; we primarily focus on education, family, integrity, and character building. As well as promoting entrepreneurial, professional, and athletic development.
Our Purpose/Values:
- Teach & Promote Future Leadership
- Build & Maintain a High Level of Self Esteem
- Encourage the pursuit of achieving both individual and team goals
- Show appreciation & respect for all; teammates and competitors alike
- Develop Positive Core Offensive and Defensive traits
- Self Discipline & Accountability
- Support and Promote Dream Building thru Community Networking
We uphold these by:
- Participating in City/Community sponsored events
- Volunteering time and spirit when opportunities present themselves
- Collaborating with similar local programs, teams, leagues that promote positivity and unity
- Recognizing & Rewarding Individual/Group efforts and achievements
- Fundraising & Planning
The Heights continuously challenges its players/particpants to recognize, and maximize their potential thru positive competition and involvement within social settings. We use these moments to increase the awareness of opportunities to evaluate and apply core values.
Our team(s) travel and compete throughout Palm Beach County & abroad, where opportunities are available. All with the goal of being exposed to representatives from Middle Schools & High Schools. As well as Colleges & Universities, to explore the possibilities of future athletic, academic, & artistic scholarship opportunities.
