“The energy you put into the world is the energy that finds its way back to you. Stay positive, stay relentless, and watch how doors open that you never even knocked on.” – Coach Eby

And here’s the best part: I’m not doing this alone.
My wife Jemma, my two boys, and an incredible team of coaches and supporters are making this vision a reality.
Together, we’re building something special for communities across Canada and beyond. ❤️

My dream? To reach underserved youth who feel like underdogs.
To give them a safe space to grow and tools to succeed in basketball, school, and life.
Because I know what it’s like to feel like the odds are stacked against you. 🙌

Every Legacy North program combines basketball training with mental performance coaching.
We talk about things like:
• Building confidence during tough moments.
• Managing emotions when the pressure is on.
• Setting goals that actually motivate you.

This year, we’ve already worked with 150+ young athletes, empowering them to develop mental strength, foster self-belief, and build skills for life.
And we’re just getting started. 🚀
Here’s how we do it differently 👇

At Legacy North, we don’t just teach kids how to dribble, pass, and shoot.
We teach them how to manage their emotions, build confidence, and set meaningful goals.
Because what happens off the court is just as important as what happens on it. 💬

Fast forward to today, and I see so many young athletes going through the same struggles. They’re talented, driven, and passionate, but they often lack the tools to tackle mental and emotional challenges.
That’s why I built Legacy North Academy. 📈

Growing up, mental health wasn’t something we talked about. I struggled in silence, not knowing how to process the highs and lows of life.
But then, there was basketball. Every bounce of the ball, every shot I took, brought me closer to understanding myself. 🧠

🏀 When I was a kid, basketball was more than a game. It was my lifeline through tough times, my teacher in resilience, and my guide to becoming who I am today.
This is the story behind Legacy North Academy and why we’re changing lives—on and off the court. 🧵👇 #LEGACYnorth

Be kind. Be curious. Check in. Everyone carries unseen battles, and a small act of care can change someone’s day—or life. Pause judgment, choose empathy, and make people feel seen. Let’s create a world where compassion leads the way. 🌍 #BeKind #MentalHealth #CheckInOnYourPeople

Coaches: High school players won’t remember every drill, win, or loss. But they’ll never forget how you made them feel, the lessons you taught about life, and the confidence you built in them. Teach the game, but coach the person.
