A: It depends on how many students are registered! If there's enough interest in our program, we will separate by age and skill level.

A: All practices take place on school property (the outdoor basketball courts or field space). Parents can pick up their children at the courts, field or the front of the school when practice is over.

A: This is up to the school and every school is different. If the school allows parents to come on campus after school hours, then yes we would love the parents to be able to watch their kids play.

 

A: No. Parents do not need to stay for practice. Their children are our responsibility for the one-hour after school and they are more than welcome to run some errands or stay home as long as they are back in time to pick their kids up as soon as practice is over.

 

A: Then our programs are perfect for them! We focus on the FUN that sports have to offer and we work on fundamentals/skill builders every day. Our program is a great way to introduce the basic skills and have fun while learning them.

 

A: Well they can always join our programs for extra practice and entertainment! We focus on FUN and we work with children from all different skill levels. Everyone seems to enjoy our program no matter how advanced he or she may be because we split children with different coaches based on age AND skill level.

 

A: Our program does not have any consistent games where we verse other teams. We play once per week, but we do make time to scrimmage at every practice. However, we do offer two optional tournaments per year that players can register for. These will take place once in the Fall and once in the Spring where students can represent their school and compete against other schools.

A: We are the most convenient, quality, and fun recreational youth sports program out there! We practice just once a week at your child’s school, we teach the fundamentals of the game, enhance skill level, teach character development (different focuses of each week), send weekly updates via email so parents know what their child is learning at practice, and go on group outings. We even have a competitive option where your child gets to showcase all they have learned at our challenging, yet fun tournaments.

 

A: We are an after school basketball or soccer program that is here on school campus. We practice once per week, for an hour after school (ex: every Thursday) from Sept – May. We teach our players the fundamentals of the sport, character development, and we have fun. We bring community, family, and fun back to youth sports. Each week we have a new “focus of the day.” For example week #1 We will be teaching our players all about dribbling and responsibility.

 

A: Every school is different, but most schools have the players meet their coaches in the cafeteria. So, as soon as they get dismissed they will meet us in the cafeteria and we will take attendance. Once we have everyone, we will head out to the basketball courts and start practice. We will send you an update via email on the exact meeting location before the program starts.

 

A: We require that children are wearing comfortable clothes to play in and closed-toe shoes. Basketball shoes or cleats and shin guards are recommended, but not required to play on our team. Although it is recommended, running shoes or sneakers will do just fine! We also recommend that your child bring a water bottle to practice everyday because it is important to stay hydrated. We will have frequent water breaks throughout practice.

 

A: The sun is very powerful at this time of day, but we take a lot of water breaks to be sure all of our players stay cool for the one-hour that they are outside. It’s always a good idea to pack a hat and/or sunscreen for your kids to wear during practice. Our coaches can help them put it on if needed.

 

A: Practice usually won't be canceled unless there is extreme weather. We will play under the PE Pavilion or indoors somewhere on campus. We have specific indoor games and activities that we play if this situation occurs. In the case of a cancelled practice, parents will be notified by text, email or phone.

 

A: No, we only host after school programs, tournaments, private events, or private training sessions.

 

A: Does your child go to a daycare? If so, what school (write this down)? We coach at a few daycares in the area and if your child’s school does not already have a program like ours, we would love to bring ours to you! Take our card and send us an email. We will update you once we establish a program for your child to be a part of. We are working on finding a location to practice in the evenings for all ages and we will let you know when it starts.
