About EAST BAY WILDCATS

East Bay Wildcats (EIN 82-3288296) is a 501(c)(3) youth sports nonprofit based in Oakland, CA that runs basketball development programs and AAU teams for children and teens. The EIN and tax-exempt status (IRS ruling year 2022) were confirmed through federal filings and nonprofit registries, and the organization maintains an active public website and registration for seasonal programs.

The organization operates a coaching and player-development pipeline that includes toddler/kinder sessions, youth teams (grades 3–8), girls summer programs, and high-school evaluations aimed at college exposure and elite circuits. Leadership listed on public filings and the organization's site includes Executive Director Demetrius Roquemore and President Orlando Watkins.

In its most recent publicly filed year (fiscal year ending 2022) East Bay Wildcats reported program-service-driven revenue with the majority of income coming from program fees; the group continues to run tryouts, seasonal camps and AAU competition entries (including alignment with Adidas Gold / 3Stripes pathways) as its primary activities in 2023–2025.
