Not YMCAs, since I know to look them up. Not gyms.

But Sports Academies that might specialize in sports training for kids (to include middle school and high school). I am specifically interested in basketball, but for the sake of others who might be interested you can include other sports as well. Good swimming academies can be included as well. If there is a YMCA that is exceptional in basketball please let me know.

I don't live in metro Philadelphia, but visit regularly, and I am considering a move.

Thanks. Got a chance to read up on Arthur Ashe on wikipedia.

Any basketball academies, especially Montgomery county? Or would it essentially be the YMCAs? Or school-based?

Sam Rines is the big name in Montco hoops. Looks like this is their place: Rise Academy.

Thank you very much. Clicking on Directions gave me information on some of the other facilities in the area as well (e.g. Renegades Basketball). Looks like there is a variety of options for a variety of needs.

Thanks again.
