About
Jonathan Dukes is the founder of Kingdom Sports Inc., a company that
helps develop the raw talent of athletes aspiring to reach the level of
professional. Jonathan is also the founder of the program, TAKE IT TO
THE STREETS, which reach both the young and the young at heart sport
fanatics. He has been running basketball tournaments and a community
program for the last 24 years.
Prior to the start of Kingdom Sports, Jonathan had a history of being an
outstanding athlete in basketball. Starting as a varsity player at Milford
High School, his talents provided opportunities for him to travel the
entire east coast playing in travel teams, numerous adult leagues and
Delaware Jr. Olympics. He is also a Delaware All-State Alumni for the
Class of 87. While, in the military Jonathan also had the honor to
represent his AFB. He also serves a director of one of Delaware’s finest
non-profit organizations, Family Outreach Center.
With his talent, Jonathan had realized there weren’t any resources
afforded to him to take his talents, abilities and skills to the next level.
Even when others saw there was an opportunity and even the possibility
there still wasn’t a local system to bridge the gap.
It has always been a vision and a goal to begin a minor league system or
semi pro team to develop local and regional talents by building that
bridge that he was not privileged to. Over the last couple of years
Jonathan has been in contact with many athletes who had similar
stories of not being able to go as far in their sport careers has they
would have liked. Now with the help and aide of other alumni and
sports athletes Kingdom Sports is now able to build the missing bridge
and create that farming system that will provide the opportunity to local
and regional talent to be exposed to a larger pool of players.
Kingdom Sports, Inc. and Family Outreach Center would like to present
to Delmarva its very own first semi-professional basketball team known
as “Delaware Eastern Shore Generals “.
