How it works:
Teams will hold no more than 9 players per roster. Each athlete will be put through our "Combine" or tryout which will consist of a series of drills and exercises where our coaches will assess each athlete and gather data in order to determine which team the athlete will be placed in. Please see above our curriculum to gain a better understanding of each team. From white to pink, our curriculum is designed so that as players develop they can move up and have a continuous growth within the program. We aim to give everyone the opportunity to earn their playing time. Our goal is to always emphasize that minutes will be earned so that players understand the work needed in order to be successful on and off the court.

Lastly, while we encourage players to participate in multiple sports, we do require a steady practice commitment to be able to compete in local tournaments and build team momentum. Team members are encouraged to give the coach notice if planning on being absent. 

If the select team commitment is too much for your child,  we do recommend they attend our Skills Academy developmental clinics.

• Gray 8u and 9u Team - 2 one hour and thirty minutes practices/week, 1 skills clinics/week.

Tips for Parents and Players: 

Combine or Tryouts are designed to help find the right fit for each player and team. Through a series of drills and games, we will be looking for the following skills, decision-making and attitudes:

Ball handling, passing, defense, rebounding, scoring, timing and spacing, toughness, aggressiveness, focus, awareness, coachability, and communication.

We understand you have goals for your child and are looking for what's best for him/her. We have now helped hundreds of student-athletes get to the next level. Whether your goal is to help your child make it to the NBA or simply get better at basketball and help him/her make his/her HS team, our professional coaches and our carefully designed curriculum will help them do that.
