​

Performance Basketball Institute (PBI) was founded with one mission: to build a true developmental home for young basketball players in Northern Arizona. As an ex-Div 1 college basketball player with experience at the professional level, and a longtime Yavapai community member, taxpayer, and advocate for youth basketball, I launched this program in response to a serious and growing issue—lack of indoor basketball facilities which has led to a lack of basketball culture being exposed to our youth. 

 

In cities like Prescott and neighboring cities, the basketball culture has not been established, leaving aspiring athletes—and the coaches who want to mentor them—with few options. Despite being a locally owned for-profit program, PBI is driven by purpose. We believe every child deserves access to high-quality basketball training and facilities, mentorship, and the opportunity to pursue their hoop dreams—regardless of living an hour and forty-five minutes from Phoenix, AZ where most youth AAU organizations and tournaments are located.

 

At PBI, we develop more than just basketball players. We teach discipline, resilience, teamwork, and leadership. Our elite training programs, AAU travel teams, and community events provide real pathways for kids to grow their game and compete at the highest level—while staying rooted in their own hometown.

 

We’re here to challenge the status quo, open new doors, and ensure that the next generation of five-star athletes from Prescott and surrounding cities doesn’t have to leave their community behind to chase their goals.

 

This is where development starts and the path to scholarships begin - This is PBI.
