Northwest Magic was founded in 2009 by Coach Vanessa Selden- Mcclendon, a former University of Oregon standout. With the support and backing of her husband (Gerald McClendon), a great friend with great business savvy and a passion for basketball (Edwina Martin-Arnold), and a great Coach mentor (Kevin Strozier) , Northwest Magic has developed into one of the most recognizable organizations in the Northwest. NW Magic is a premier youth basketball program focused on developing college ready players. This involves skills development, fostering sportsmanship, and encouraging academic success.
Our top year round basketball player development program is unmatched. NW Magic offers a variety of training programs for those who are serious about taking their game to the next level.
