Professional youth basketball clinics for Kindergarten through 5th grade, held right on your child's school campus in La Jolla and San Diego.
Age-appropriate curriculum, structured seasons, and professional coaching — all held on your child's school courts after school.
Kindergarten – 2nd Grade
Movement, fun, and fundamentals. Every kid leaves smiling and wanting more. We build coordination, passing, and a love of the game through guided play — no scores, high energy.

Skill development with measurable progression. Theme-based curriculum each season — shooting, defense, dribbling, and team concepts — with coached scrimmages every session.
Learn more →All Grades · K – 5th
Full-day basketball camps during school breaks, held right on campus. Daily skill themes, small group rotations, and an end-of-week showcase so parents can see what their child learned.
Learn more →No driving to another facility. Kids walk from class to the court. Parents pick up right where they already are — the simplest afterschool win for busy families.
15+ years coaching ages 3–17 means your K–2 child gets fundamentals through play, not pressure — while your 3rd–5th grader gets real skill development every single session.
Enrollment caps keep groups small enough that every child gets genuine coaching feedback every session — not just time on the court.
From the 5-year-old taking their first dribble to the 10-year-old running real plays — same coach, same values, same place. Kids grow up inside Rise, not out of it.
Rise Basketball is led by Matthew Gevargiz — a La Jolla parent, active school volunteer, and the coach many families in the community already trust with their kids.
This isn't an outside vendor. We're your neighbors — building something for this community specifically.
