First Step Basketball Academy was established in 1999, at the Rockville Sportsplex in Maryland. Since that time, the academy has grown to Northern Virginia and the District of Columbia.

Our academy has professional coaches that will teach all the fundamentals of the game to your child at any level. We teach the fundamentals of the game but stress decision making and problem solving on the court in a practice environment. Our professional coaches are experienced with the recreational, travel and the collegiate player. We emphasize rigorous training but we never forget that basketball should be played only because it is fun.
