OUR STORY

Empowering Young Athletes

ABOUT FIRST STEP                             

First Step, established in 2020 by Coach Jermaine Lyle, is dedicated to providing exceptional basketball training and rep programs for youth athletes in the Kitchener-Waterloo and Greater Toronto Area. Our services include private & group training sessions, skills camps, AAU/Rep Teams, and merchandise sales.

We specialize in helping high school players gain exposure by sending training & game footage, organizing private sessions with college coaches, and offering consultation to athletes aspiring to play at the next level.

OUR FOUNDER

Jermaine Lyle, the visionary behind First Step Basketball, has been immersed in the world of basketball since childhood. Growing up in a family that lived and breathed the sport, Jermaine’s love for basketball was ignited early and only grew stronger over time. A standout player during his high school university years, he excelled on the court and quickly became known for his talent, determination, and leadership. Jermaine graduated university with the option of playing professional, but with the rise of covid19 another path emerged.

After experiencing the transformative power of basketball in his own life, Jermaine decided to share his passion with others. He founded First Step Basketball to inspire and empower the next generation of players. For Jermaine, basketball is more than just a game—it’s a lifestyle that teaches discipline, teamwork, and resilience. Through First Step Basketball, he strives to instill these values in every player, helping them not only succeed on the court but also in life.
