BIGGER THAN ball
Born from the belief that every child holds untapped greatness, SPLASH weaves basketball fundamentals with the deeper pillars of mentorship, education, health, and community. It’s not just about building better players—it’s about shaping stronger, more confident young men and women who are prepared for life’s biggest moments.
Founded by Cleveland Cavaliers legend Daniel “Booby” Gibson, SPLASH began as a training program, ShootersU, but quickly became so much more. Daniel saw that teaching the game was only the first step; what kids truly needed was guidance, opportunity, and a safe space to grow. Inspired by his own journey—from humble beginnings to the NBA Finals—he built SPLASH from the heart, combining the discipline of elite athletics with the life skills and support needed to help every player become the best version of themselves.
NOT JUST A PROGRAM, A PATHWAY
SPLASH Launchpad isn’t just a program—it’s a lifeline for student-athletes chasing their shot. Designed as a post-grad gap year model, Launchpad transforms unsigned talent into scholarship-ready athletes through housing, training, academics, life skills, and NIL development. It’s the one chance many never get, and it’s changing futures every season.
