Our Mission
Our Goal is to help every basketball player we have develop good habits that will allow them to work hard and efficiently on and off the court. We aim to have these good habits allow them to play on their High School Varsity team. Every year, most High Schools in Arizona Play maybe 8-10 players a game on a 12-15 man roster and 10 is stretching it at the Varsity level for play time. A 'typical' expectation is Varsity with some playing time by Junior year, and then more playing time Senior year, it all depends on your dedication to the game. Depending on school size, the difficulty goes up. Some schools are 'Basketball Schools' meaning they have a really good and advanced basketball program. Talk to your Coach to get an idea as to what kind of route your student athlete is going to go through.
