BROOKLYN BLACK STARS WELCOMES YOU

THE FULL STORY

Background

BK Blackstar is borne out of the passion to get children in Brooklyn and neighbouring areas active while learning important social skills like teamwork, respect, and pride in oneself through soccer.

Philosophy 
Our coaching principles are guided by a method called ‘Play Practice Play'. The kids will learn the game through a series of game-related activities which Mosito will introduce at the beginning of every session and he will coach to the skill during the activity.

Inspiration
The name BK is inspired by our son Bokang who’s nickname is BK and the borough of Brooklyn. Black Star is borrowed from Marcus Garvey’s black star line which was a fleet of ships he owned to transport people back to Africa and the Hip Hop duo Mos Def and Talib Kweli are Black Star.
