This is a wonderful organization that focuses on the growth of athletes while ensuring their academic success. Athletes are pushed to be their best selves on and off the court.
Family-oriented environment teaching life lesson, leadership & basketball. My daughter loves attending & she has learned so much.
Highly recommended!
I have twins participating in the Programs offered by the Academy. They both continue to develop as athletes and as young teenagers because of the academy.
This is a terrific place, run by a group of great people. They invest in the community and your child. Their basketball program is the best we have been involved in and they truly invest in your child on and off the court.
This maybe one of the greatest organizations for children and teens . An organization that actually cares about the development of our youth . There is no better place to be if you want your child to have fun but get the Life Lessons they need as well.
This organization has really help me and my family. The organization not only help develop my daughter into a 2 time all metro player but help her to get full ride scholarships. They are not about money and winning but about developing student athletes. I can think them enough.
Where do I begin??? Rising star academy environment is highly charged with an atmosphere of family, morals and values!!

My daughter Sanai, started playing basketball in the 5th grade. She had never played the game of basketball before, all she knew was that she loved the game. Five years later, her love of the game has grown along with her skills and abilities, thanks to Shining Stars Academy and Cap City Ballerz!! We are Family For Life!!
Shining Stars Academy is an awesome Organization. They are like another set of parents to your child. They are just like family. How they go above and beyond is impeccable.
Well run organization that is all about the kids growth and development on and off the court. We have always felt welcomed and my daughter has had all positive experiences.
Shining Stars Sporting Academy is well
Organize. The staff is friendly and professional at all times. This organization offers programs for children in the community including basketball, a library where kids can come and get books and meet other kids.. They are family oriented. This is what the city of Petersburg needed a place where children can go and have fun. They have offered free camp for a week. The facility is clean . I love going there for tournaments or any events they have.
We have been a family member of this organization for many years under CapCityBallerz; and through the move to Shining Star Academy.
Each and every minute of my daughters time there, the staff, coaches, and owners have always had her best interest at heart!
We have truly felt a part of the family.!
Excellence within this organization is without question!
