HOW WE SUPPORT THEM

Since 2016, ACG Cares Foundation and the NBA have partnered to find the best basketball talent in India.

In this time we have assessed thousands of athletes across the length and breadth of India.
Over the years, the programme has evolved and now ensures that talented athletes from any part of the country won’t go unnoticed.

In addition to the open city tryouts, we have had a series of experienced scouts travel throughout India and its many tournaments to observe and identify the best.

Once identified, these young athletes get a unique opportunity to stay, train and receive an education from the NBA Academy.

Through the ACG Cares Foundation and the NBA Academy, many athletes have secured scholarships across the world, including in the USA and Europe, and many have also gone on to represent India in national and international events.
