The Jim Basketball Jones program empowers kids to Act, Think and Play like a Champion. The show includes basketball spinning, dribbling and juggling mixed with constant positive messages about Life and Jim’s inspirational story of overcoming DYSLEXIA. Seven years ago, Jim started offering his program to schools. It has grown from 12 shows to over 350 shows annually. Many schools have booked him annually or every other year because his powerful message and the impact he has had on both students and staff. This is a fast pace assembly with a strong message of hope, determination and hard work. Jim’s message blends well with school themes of Saying No to Drugs, Bullying, Respect, the Power of Reading, Honesty, Career Day and Being Your Best.

This is a unique program that has been highly recommended.

“Jim Basketball Jones was Outstanding! One of the best assemblies I have ever seen. His performance and impact on the children is monumental. Every elementary school in the country should have Basketball Jones perform for their children,”
