About EBC
Training Centers

EBC Training Centers is a youth basketball program located in Kirkland, WA, offering year-round training, camps, and competitive AAU teams for boys and girls in grades 3rd through High School. At EBC, we are more than a basketball program. We are a community built on growth, connection, and purpose.

Our gym is a place where athletes are taught to compete with confidence, care for one another, and stay present. We believe basketball is a classroom, and every practice and game is an opportunity to build life skills beyond the scoreboard. One Gym. One Family. means every player, coach, and family is part of something bigger.

Our focus is long term development of players and people. Through intentional coaching and clear standards, athletes build strong fundamentals, make decisions, and learn how to respond to challenges with confidence and composure. We coach hard, love harder, and measure success by growth, character, and showing up as an energy giver on and off the court.

What our families say

01 / 04

If you are looking for a program that truly cares about your child, EBC is the place to be.

EBC helped our daughter accomplish her dreams of playing Division 1 basketball. More importantly, the coaches challenged, encouraged and nurtured her to become a better version of herself on and off the court. Years later, they continue to cheer her on and are considered extended family.

The Biggest Season
in EBC History

This season, EBC joins NXTPRO, Puma's national grassroots circuit. This is the first partnership of its kind in our program's history, and it changes what's possible for every player who wears our jersey.

For our top middle school and high school teams, NXTPRO means a national schedule. Your player will compete against the best programs in the country, in gyms filled with college coaches. The competition gets tougher, the stages get bigger and the exposure reaches a level we've never offered before.

We've spent more than 10 years building this foundation. More than 60 of our alumni have played college basketball. We've developed leaders who carry what they learned here into classrooms, workplaces and communities. Now, with Puma behind us, we have a national platform to show what Washington basketball and EBC players are about.

The 2027 season marks the start of a new era for EBC. We want your family to be part of it from day one.
