The Atlanta Hawks Basketball Academy's Lady Ballers Program is a developmental program which aims to encourage and support youth basketball participation and improve the overall youth basketball experience for girls ages 6-18. In addition to learning fundamentals and team concepts, girls will learn life skills such as teamwork, leadership and self-confidence. Lady Ballers will develop a lifelong passion for the game through positive engagements with female role models and coaches in a safe learning environment. The Lady Ballers Program empowers, challenges and inspires girls to rise above the competition on and off the court.

On July 29th we hosted EmpowHer with Renee Montgomery, 2X WNBA Champ and Activist, and Tori Miller, College Park Skyhawks General Manager and first female General Manager in the NBA. Moderated by Hawks Reporter, Annie Finberg, the engaging discussion focused on how sport can help us gain skills like leadership and perserverance. Panelists answered questions from girls that ranged from topics such as healthy eating, mentorship and the importance of staying active.

Congrats to Dylan and Falon, our
Nike Game Growers Co-Captains!
On January 17th, Dylan and Falon were surprised by Harry the Hawk when they attended the Atlanta Hawks vs Milwaukee Bucks commemorative Martin Luther King, Jr. game. During the second quarter, Harry the Hawk made a special visit to the girls in their seats to present them with Hawks swag and a Nike Game Grower Co-Captain certificate. Check it out below!
Nike Game Growers is an exclusive opportunity for 7th & 8th grade girls, ages 13+, to share their ideas on how to grow girls participation sport for their peers. Together we will build future female leaders who will inspire the next generation of girls to stay involved in sport!
