“F.O.C.U.S provided me an opportunity to better myself and develop skills that I still use to this day on and off the court. Coach Tim Barnett uses basketball as a tool to help me and countless others grow into individuals with high character and become leaders in our community. He cares deeply about each of his players and uses his life experiences to educate and push them to places they didn’t know they were capable.”

“It’s an environment that is safe, but at the same time it’s inviting and kids want to come back each and every day. It’s really remarkable when you get involved and you see Tim changing the lives of some of these kids.”

“The Sherman family loves Tim Barnett, not because he’s a great basketball instructor, but because of the person he is and because of what he wants to do for the youth in this community. He’s making a huge difference and we will continue to support him and his dreams!”
