Our Philosophy
Development Over the Scoreboard
Our priority is player development and fostering a passion for basketball. Winning is important, but growth, effort, and teamwork come first.
Coach Development
We believe the key to growing basketball in our community is investing in our coaches. Younger, less experienced coaches will be paired with mentor coaches to ensure high-quality instruction at every level.
No-Cut Policy
Every athlete deserves an opportunity to play and improve. We do not cut players. However, because club basketball is highly competitive, we may designate some athletes as practice players to ensure a positive experience. If a player is unable to participate in tournaments, the tournament portion of their fees will be refunded.
Equal Play Policy
Athletes will receive equal playing time through the first three quarters of every game. In the fourth quarter, playing time is at the coach’s discretion, based on effort, performance, and team discipline.
