What INTORE CANADA BASKETBALL ACADEMIE does

Intore Canada Basketball Academy (ICBA) is a non-profit organization incorporated in Canada, operating youth basketball programs in the National Capital Region (Ottawa-Gatineau). Its core offering consists of recreational and competitive basketball programs for children and youth aged 6 to 18, supplemented by summer Intensive Preseason Programs for boys (U10–U14) and girls (U10–U12) priced at $175 per participant covering four training sessions over two weeks. The academy uses Ontario Basketball Association age categories for player grouping and runs evaluation sessions for competitive roster placement.

Program delivery occurs at six school gymnasiums across Gatineau, Quebec — Notre-Dame School, La Source School, De l'Envolée School, L'Oiseau-Bleu School, École de l'Aigle, and École Euclide-Lanthier — with each session staffed by two ICBA coaches. The stated mission is social integration of children from diverse communities in the National Capital Region through basketball as a social capital generator.

The business model is a hybrid of program registration fees (one-time per season/camp) and tax-receipt-eligible donations processed via Stripe on a bilingual EN/FR Webflow website. Marketing is conducted primarily through the website, Facebook, and Instagram, with registration handled as a self-serve online flow. The organization lists corporate/community partners Delfast, Régimbal, and Tuguma Strength in Unity. There are no disclosed financials, headcount, or founding date in the source material.
