Last Summer, Atlanta Select sealed a "partnership" with Carver Bible College. The college is headed by President Robert Crummie, with Coach Martin Carter as head basketball coach, assisted by Coach Jeremy Russell (pictured above). The Bible College is designated as a "Second Chance Ministry" giving young men a second chance with emphasis on religious studies.
The CEO of Atlanta Select, Coach Tony Hill, developed a relationship with the college through Coach Russell. Thus, a decision was made for the two organizations to support each other in kind. Atlanta Select provided uniform accessories and other supportive equipment and gear to support the basketball team and its program. The college basketball program is a member of the National Christian Collegiate Athletic Association (NCCAA) Division I. The team plays other colleges and universities throughout the Southeast, playing Georgia State University for the first time on November 17.
Pictured above are several of the players, from left to right - Demetrius Maize, Freshman from Louisville, KY, James "JJ" Barbee, Sophomore from Durham, NC, Corey Evans, Sophomore from Durham, NC, Rashad Scott, Sophomore from The Bahamas and Nicholas Hood, Freshman from Atlanta, GA.
Atlanta Select conducts Skills Development training for boys and girls, ages 13 - 17, every Sunday during the Fall, from 3 - 5:30 PM, under the supervision of Coach Hill (pictured above with trainees). He is assisted by Coaches Jarett Brown, Hollis, Copeland, Harris, Anthony, Davis, Ross, Norman, Watson, Russell and Lanier. The public is invited. We are grateful for the relationship that has been established with the college and thank President Crummie and his staff for their untiring support.
