Where Basketball and Culture Educate, Inspire, and Empower.
We are more than basketball.
Celebrating 29 Years of Serving Community Youth Outreach Programs.
Programs are intentionally held during late weekend nights—peak hours for youth-related crime—to keep youth engaged in a safe, supervised, and enriching environment. Through life-skills education,
mentorship, artistic exploration, and athletic engagement, AMBLP continues to reduce crime and cultivate arts education to strengthen communities across Austin.
OUR 2026 VISION
Our Program Motto:
“Basketball is the Lure. Cultural Arts Education is the Cure.”
From 3rd and 4th quarter of 2026, AMBLP will deliver a program featuring music, art, culture, dance, and videography education workshops, seminars, and internships for our coed youth ages 12-17.
Preparing for an exciting future, our focus is on expanding programs and deepening community impact by training youth in music, art, culture, dance, and videography within safe, supervised environments. These experiences are delivered alongside youth basketball tournaments and leagues, where basketball serves as the entertainment that draws young people together in a cultural training environment.
TRAINING IN
MUSIC / ART / CULTURE / DANCE / VIDEOGRAPHY
- MUSIC – Music training introduces youth to DJ skills, mixing techniques, sound-board operation, and music production while exposing them to diverse global genres. Live DJs and friendly competitions during tournament events allow participants to apply what they learn, build confidence, and explore creative career pathways.
- ART – Art programming provides platforms for visual artists and fashion designers to showcase their work during tournament weekends. Through Designer Nights and creative displays, youth develop self-expression, entrepreneurship, and pride in their creative abilities.
- CULTURE – Cultural education helps youth understand and celebrate the influences behind music, art, and sports. Workshops, seminars, and community markets strengthen identity, encourage cultural awareness, and bring families and communities together locally and statewide.
- DANCE – Dance programming offers opportunities for movement, performance, and self-expression during basketball events. Showcases and performances support physical wellness, creativity, and confidence while reinforcing teamwork and discipline.
- VIDEOGRAPHY – Learn to video games on post on social media.
Together, these focus areas use the excitement of basketball to engage youth while delivering meaningful education and creative development beyond the game.
