Tutoring

Our Learning Center offers free academic tutoring during the school year for children in our sports, academic or leadership programs. We offer assistance for children ages 5-17. Our focus is two-fold: help students with their schoolwork, assignments and/or projects and to communicate with each student’s teacher and work together to improve in whatever subject the student is having difficulty. Our tutors are dedicated and knowledgeable high school and college students.

Coaching

We build character and promote values for over 700 boys and girls K-8th grades through organized sports. Volunteers help mentor and teach the children of the Friars Club. The Friars children all come from varied socio-economic backgrounds and are coached in life skills and the fundamentals of basketball.

About us

Today, Friars continues to provide organized athletics (basketball, baseball and volleyball), education and leadership programming for over 1000 boys and girls ages 4-17. All programs focus on values of respect, responsibility, leadership and good sportsmanship. These programs are athletic in nature but academic in purpose, resulting in long-lasting fun memories and friendships, teaching valuable life skills. Friars’ instruction and guidance builds healthy bodies, minds and spirits by bolstering self-esteem and self-discipline, while at the same time, reinforcing positive behavior and addressing nutritional needs.
