The Jimmy Banks Academy (J.B.A.) was birthed from the inspiring success story of the late Jimmy Banks, a renowned USMNT Soccer Icon, Mentor, Community Advocate, and Milwaukee Native. Our mission is to continue his legacy by using soccer as a catalyst to equip under-resourced kids and youth with essential life skills, which integrate physical fitness, educational goal-setting, and impactful mentorship that positively influence the lives of young people.
