I am grateful for what the Academy has done for Sophia and all she has learned. I have told her many times that there wasn't anything like this when I was growing up. It has definitely taught her basketball skills, but she has truly learned much more than that. Respect, teamwork, commitment, leadership, confidence, these are the skills that will carry her in life. We are very grateful to be part of the EA Family.

EA is awesome I travel every week from Turtle Mountains with my autistic grandson have been for the past four months and he loves it, talk about improvement, all I hear is Coach Earnest and Benny!! lol you are all awesome keep up the great work!

We love the academy and all you and the other coaches do for these kids!!! Big things happening!!!

Earnest - you and the Academy are such an asset to this community! You're an inspiration on where hard work and dedication can take you. You lead with grit and passion, in spite of racial injustice, showing the world can't nothin' hold you back! We love you for the courage, tenacity and fortitude you instill in our kids. We never stop because YOU never stop!

We’ve been with you since the beginning and there is NO ONE better! Not only have you taught these kids the skill of basketball, you have taught them so much more! We are so grateful for you and the academy!
