What is City Mamba Village?
What is City Mamba? What is our mission?
“Our mission is to bring as many people as we possibly can, whether in our community or outside of it, together and create a family. Our mission is to give kids an outlet to stay off the streets, something positive, teach discipline, train for whatever tryout they may have, keep them focused, and to spread nothing but positivity all the way around. Our mission is to help each and every member achieve each and every goal they have for themselves; and with the help of their Mamba brothers, they will accomplish those goals.”

Here is how one of our student athletes answers that question:
All Are Welcome
Girls and boys of all ages and all skill levels are welcome to train, from elementary
school to college.
We are not a basketball team; we are a family that loves basketball.
If you have never played before, City Mamba is for you. If you need to work on specific skills in order to qualify for your school’s team, City Mamba is for you. If you want to beat your cousins at the next family reunion, City Mamba is for you.
We will learn the fundamentals of the game basketball (passing, shooting, guarding, etc.), how to improve your strength and stamina, as well as study time management, play design strategy and the Science of Basketball.
We work on each person’s strengths and weakness to improve your game and take it to the next level.
As you progress, you will qualify to take your Rank Exam and become an official City Mamba member. See the Training Tab for details on our ranking system.
Basketball Skills Development
Mamba Mentality
Self-improvement is central to our program. Not just the improvement of our game on the court, but on who we are off the court.
We will work to become physically, mentally and spiritually strong and lend that strength to our Mamba brothers and sister whenever it is needed.
“To sum up what Mamba Mentality is, it means to be the best version of yourself"- Kobe Bryant
At City Mamba we are family. We train together, play together and take care of each other. A win for one is a win for all.
Our goal is for each of our student athletes to go out into the world and achieve their goals. Several of our members have gone on the play for their high school, college and AAU teams. And many return year after year to train and improve – and hang out with their Mamba Family.
Once a Mamba, always a Mamba!
