About the Program

Wode Athlete Center is the basketball gym behind Work Or Don't Eat, a training company run by founder Jermaine Seagears on Rafael Ridge Way in Las Vegas (89119). Its main programs are built for kids who already play and want structured development.

The main program is The Build, for boys 13U to 15U. Players train Monday to Thursday from 6 to 7:30 PM, four sessions a week, with Build games and film breakdown. Each age group is capped at 10 spots, so ask the gym when the next group starts and what it costs.

Checkpoint Hoops is the game side. Club teams of boys and girls, 10U to 15U, can book games for practice reps without paying tournament prices. In summer, the Team Build club program for 12U to 15U has trained Monday to Thursday with Checkpoint games on Saturdays, so ask whether it runs next summer.

The menu also lists a Beginners Academy, a Saturday Shooters Club, a girls league called Its HER League, private training and Pathway Prep, which combines academics and basketball, so ask the gym about any of them. Call 240-839-8003 to ask which group fits your child.

First Visit Guide

What most youth sports programs expect. Confirm the details with Wode Athlete Center before you go.

What to bring

  • Water, and then more water. In this valley the heat decides practice more than the coach does from May through September.
  • Athletic clothes, sunscreen, and a hat for outdoor fields
  • Sport basics if you own them. Lots of intro programs lend gear for trials, so ask before buying.

Before you go

  • Confirm the exact field or court. The big parks have a dozen and the 215 traffic doesn't forgive a wrong guess.
  • Summer schedules shift to early evening for the heat. Check the seasonal calendar.
  • Day one usually has paperwork and team assignment, so come early.

The first visit

Expect drills and small-sided play. Leagues group by birth year. Before you commit, ask how many practices there are per game and where the games actually get played, because home field can mean Henderson one week and North Las Vegas the next.

For sensory-sensitive kids

Whistles and sideline noise are the hard part. Ask about clinic-style sessions that are skills only, with no game crowd, as a first step.
