WILDCAT Doc to Show Resolve of Inner City 4th Grade Basketball Team

Norfolk, VA--Can basketball change kids’ lives? Ask the 4th graders who make up the WILDCATS, an inner city AAU basketball team, and the answer will be a resounding “yes.”

“These kids are excited about the prospect of reaching nationals and having their stories captured,” said Anthony Clary, director and producer of the WILDCAT documentary. “They’ve worked hard and have given 110%. The coaches have spent countless hours with a group of young boys who have a dream. Basketball has become an important positive tool used to keep them motivated in school and out of trouble.”

After closing out last season with a regional loss to a bitter out-of-state rival, the drive for redemption has never been more pressing. This year's team has a "serious business" approach, especially with so much on the line. It's amazing how much change can happen in 12 months--especially for kids who are determined to win.

“Basketball is changing these kids’ lives,” said Clary. “It’s teaching them hard work, determination, and character building. Most importantly, it’s showing them a world outside of the projects, where they often see much turmoil and dismay.”  

The 4th graders are legitimate national contenders this year. The road has and will be a difficult one, but the kids are determined. The director is turning to Indiegogo, a crowdfunding service, and basketball fans around the world for help capturing their journey on film.

“This is an inspirational story about a group of kids with a knack for overcoming incredible odds.  at home and on the court,” said Clary. “We know once people get introduced to the team, they’ll be interested in the story. Indiegogo is helping us tell it.”

The campaign launches Today, January 14 and the director is seeking $30,000 to supplement personal funds donated to the production for: filming, editing, crew expenses, etc.

“We want to show them its more to the world than the graffiti-filled walls surrounding their neighborhood,” said Clary.
