Everything we do is designed to prepare young athletes for the NXT level.
Led by Shaa Humphrey, Director of NXT Basketball and North Kitsap Head Boys Basketball Coach, players from our program arrive at North Kitsap High School prepared to compete at the highest level from day one.
We focus on skill and situational development with detailed play diagrams and video analysis to build the skills and decision making that translate directly to the court.









NXT isn't just about winning games — it's about building complete basketball players who are ready to compete at the highest level and become the future leaders of our community. Our values and expectations support our players on and off the court.


Fundamentals > Flash — We focus on the fundamentals first and frequently.
Our staff and coaches contributed to the historic state title run in 2020. We are here to help write the NXT chapter of the North Kitsap legacy.

North Kitsap defeats Clarkston 56-53 at the Yakima SunDome — the first Kitsap County boys basketball state title since 1983.
From youth hoops to state championships — the Viking tradition continues. We have multiple options to support each player in their development including individual and small group training as well as AAU teams that compete throughout the year in tournaments across Washington state.

We are committed to building the character and discipline to compete at the highest level, however our players form more than teams - they build lifelong friendships. The parents, players, and coaches are all part of the Viking family.
Get Gritty — Effort is non-negotiable. We refuse to be outworked. We don't make excuses.
NXT Play Mentality — We don't dwell on mistakes, but we do learn from them. Missed shot? Bad call? NXT Play!
We combine basketball skill development with age-appropriate workouts focused on developing speed, agility, vertical leap, and core strength. Our players are the most conditioned athletes on the court.
Interactive play diagrams, defensive recognition drills, and film review. Our Knowledge Base and Play Designer tools reinforce concepts learned on the court. We work hard and we work smart.
Players learn the offensive and defensive systems they'll run at North Kitsap. Motion offense, press break, man-to-man and zone principles — the same language, the same expectations.
North Kitsap captured their first-ever boys basketball state championship, defeating Clarkston 56-53 at the Yakima SunDome.
Down 14 points in the 4th quarter of the semi-finals against #1 Lynden — the two-time defending champions — NK went 10-for-10 from the field to advance to the title game.
North Kitsap basketball has a rich history of Olympic League dominance, championship-caliber coaching, and players who go on to compete at the NXT level.
One championship was just the beginning. Help us build the NXT chapter of Viking basketball.
