How it all started*

Courtside is a competitive adult basketball league built around structure, community, and a genuine love for the game. Founded in 2020 by Christian Fui Martinez during the COVID-19 pandemic, the league launched when organized basketball was limited and quickly gained traction in Miami. Through innovation and a strong social media presence, Courtside helped redefine the adult basketball space, earning features from major platforms like House of Highlights, Ball Is Life, and ESPN SportsCenter, along with partnerships with brands such as Nesquik. The league has also drawn notable figures from music and professional sports, with appearances from artists, NFL players, and NBA stars attending games.

Who We Are & What’s Next

From the beginning, Courtside was built on the belief that from pros to average Joes, there is a division for you. The league is intentionally structured to create competitive and balanced games at every level, from beginners and players who have never played organized basketball before, to elite competitors, professional athletes, and former NBA players competing at the highest divisions. By matching players against others at a similar skill level, Courtside makes the game more competitive, more fun, and more accessible for everyone.

At its core, Courtside lives by one simple slogan, Let’s Hoop. To us, that means more than just playing basketball. Hooping is a release, a form of therapy, and an escape both physically and mentally. Courtside has become a sanctuary for people navigating everyday life and tough times, while also serving as a positive and healthy hobby built around community and competition. Known for creating a unique atmosphere and high-energy vibe, Courtside is a place people want to be. Today, the league operates out of two dedicated facilities in Kendall and Westchester, and looking ahead to 2026, Courtside is expanding its vision with the launch of Courtside Kids, bringing the same proven model, structure, and culture that built the adult league to youth basketball
