Empowering young steps, one sole at a time! Follow us as we embark on a mission trip to the Philippines, bringing smiles to children's faces through donated sneakers. Together, let's make sure every kid walks with confidence and a spring in their step.

Just finished counting every pair.

500 pairs of shoes. Goal reached. 🏆

Our BATA Soldiers Basketball Program made this happen together. Every pair represents more than a donation—it represents an opportunity for a young athlete to step onto the court with confidence and dignity.

To every player, parent, volunteer, and supporter: thank you. Because of you, kids who love the game but don’t have proper shoes will get the chance to play.

This is bigger than basketball. ⚔️👟

The BATA Soldiers Program is more than a basketball team—it’s a movement. We develop athletes through discipline, character, and service while proudly representing and uniting all Asian heritages. Every practice, every game, and every opportunity is about something bigger than winning. Through BATA Sole, we use basketball as a bridge to collect and provide sneakers to youth in need, inspiring the next generation to compete with purpose and give back to the game they love. This is bigger than basketball. This is our sole purpose.

Bata Sole Fam, thank you for an amazing Quarter 1! We couldn’t have kicked off 2026 as strong as we had, without you all. 🤝

Through our fundraising efforts these past few months, our community has been able to raise $891.36, or ₱53,186.94, to support our partners in the Philippines: The Rotary Club of Cebu Porte. The team in Cebu has done impactful work in repairing a roof at a local school in Cebu, as well as hosting their Rotaplast medical mission for the kids of the Philippines.

It was so fun getting the team together for some team bonding, and even better, getting time to meet all of you throughout the community this quarter. Whether we danced together at our Charity Dance Class series, chatted at a tabling event, or had the time of our lives at Seafood City, we’ll remember each moment and cannot wait to create more memories with you the rest of this year! 👟💫

Bata Sole Family! 🎞️🕺🏽🗣️

THANK YOU SO MUCH to all who showed out, shared, and supported our first-ever Charity Dance Class Series fundraising for those affected by Typhoon Tino.
As we continue to expand our reach and efforts to communities and activities of all kinds, your contributions keep us going. This was our first step into events outside of traditional athletics, and your support gives us, and those in need of disaster relief, so much hope. 🫂

🤝 Huge shoutout to @thepuzzleboxdancestudio for hosting our event; @kanin.chi for the yummy bites; and to @silverdoubt , @timuhthy , and @camille.joycee for choreographing and teaching! We could not have done any of this without all of you.

Thank you again to the communities that surround us — We can’t wait to keep growing together, side by side, step by step, and soul to sole. 👟🖤📸
