Golden State Sports Academy and Shoot 360 Celebrate Grand Openings of Three New Bay Area Locations Inside City Sports Club Gyms

Regional Expansion Builds on Shoot 360's Growing National Footprint of Tech-Powered Basketball Training Collaborations with Premier Fitness Clubs

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Golden State Sports Academy and Shoot 360, a fast-growing gamified basketball training franchise, have opened three new technology-powered basketball training locations in the Bay Area, continuing the companies' push to bring elite-level player development into everyday fitness spaces. The new facilities, located inside City Sports Club locations in Stonestown (San Francisco), Almaden (San Jose), and Newhall (San Jose), expand access to Shoot 360's data-driven training platform for athletes of all ages and skill levels.

The openings mark the latest step in a long-standing collaboration between Shoot 360 and Golden State Sports Academy, and position City Sports Club, a Fitness International, LLC brand, as a strategic player investing in innovative amenity programming to differentiate its clubs in a competitive fitness market. The expansion reflects a broader trend across the health and fitness industry, as club operators increasingly turn to specialty, tech-driven concepts to boost member engagement and retention.

Part of Shoot 360's National Expansion

The Bay Area debut builds on strong momentum for Shoot 360, which also recently announced a collaboration with LA Fitness (also a Fitness International, LLC brand) to bring similar gamified, data-driven training courts to six locations across California, Oregon, and Washington. Together, the initiatives are part of Shoot 360's strategy of embedding its proprietary technology inside established fitness club networks to accelerate growth without relying exclusively on a traditional standalone-facility model.

Each location features Shoot 360's proprietary tech-driven courts, combining machine vision, real-time analytics, and immersive gamification. The system measures shooting arc, depth, alignment, passing, ball-handling velocity, accuracy, reaction time, and decision-making, giving athletes instant feedback and measurable performance data so they can train like the pros.

"Golden State Sports Academy has been one of our strongest teammates in showing what's possible when you put real, measurable feedback directly in athletes' hands," said Craig Moody, Founder and President of Shoot 360. "Opening inside City Sports Club lets us meet Bay Area families right where they already are, and it's a great example of how we're growing Shoot 360 by embedding our technology inside the fitness spaces people already trust."

Membership and Coaching Details

Shoot 360 Members have access to professional-level shooting and skills courts, personalized performance tracking through the Shoot 360 mobile app, exclusive programming, camps, clinics, and additional Golden State Sports Academy member benefits. The grand opening celebrations on July 26, 2026, in San Jose and on August 1, 2026, in San Francisco welcomed local families, youth athletes, coaches, basketball enthusiasts, and special guests from across the basketball community, reflecting the growing demand for technology-driven player development throughout the Bay Area.

In addition to industry-leading technology, each Shoot 360 location offers elite coaching designed to help athletes maximize their potential. By combining expert instruction with Shoot 360's advanced training technology, Golden State Sports Academy's elite coaches provide personalized feedback, build confidence, and help every athlete improve their skills in a structured, engaging, and supportive environment. This pairing of personalized instruction and measurable development reinforces Shoot 360's and Golden State Sports Academy's shared commitment to delivering one of the world's most advanced basketball training experiences.

"This collaboration with Shoot 360 is a natural extension of everything Golden State Sports Academy stands for – giving young athletes across the Bay Area access to the kind of data-driven, elite-level training that used to be reserved for a select few," said Jeff Addiego, Vice President of Golden State Sports Academy.
