ABOUT US

Believe in yourself to Achieve your goals, to eventually Live Life Outstanding, while Overcoming Negativity because it’s always knocking at our door. 

Balloon Elite is a nonprofit program built on teaching real life essentials through the game of basketball. With our elite training style we enjoy giving children their balloons and watching them rise throughout life! Balloon was found in Omaha, Nebraska 2021.

 

At Balloon Elite Basketball we focus on Education, Service, and Basketball. While basketball is the vehicle used to get the kids into the Balloon Elite Basketball Family, our goal is to use this as a gateway to get them involved into other programs including, but not limited to community service outreach and tutoring, mental health services, nutrition plans, technology and other STEM activities, financial literacy, healthy relationships and conflict management skills, and more. Being a part of all three elements of the organization provides the social and academic skills along with the work ethic required to succeed in life and add value along the way.

​

Our staff, coaches, volunteers and all BE Family Members share our hopes for our student athletes' success and are committed to seeing that our children are trained by dedicated coaches that foster an environment that emphasizes athletic excellence, physical and mental discipline, self-esteem, leadership and sportsmanship. This commitment is essential in order for each player to reach their full potential and for the program to reach it's potential as well. It was the dedication of everyone that led to an exciting announcement for Nebraska Basketball. In November 2022, Balloon Elite was officially invited to join the National Youth Basketball League (NYBL)! We're going to keep working hard because every child in our community deserves to compete at the highest level of the game. 

​

As a unit we stand, but divided we fall. With that being said, follow us on Facebook or Instagram to discover the dates of our local events, tournaments, or practices! We'd love to welcome you to the Balloon Elite (BE) family too!
