​​Founded by Huey Futch, Academy Wings is a basketball mentorship program created to give young athletes the same opportunity Huey was given — a chance to grow through the game. Here, players develop not only their skills on the court, but their character, confidence, and vision for life after basketball.

 

At Academy Wings, basketball is the language — but leadership, education, and resilience are the message.​ Because every young person deserves someone to open the door and say, “You can fly.”
