Playing at the highest level is important.  Getting that opportunity often with experience is what counts.  Please see that the Suns have sent more teams to the national AAU tournament than any other club in the last 3 years.

2008        7 teams

2007    6 teams

2006    4 teams

Check out our alumni page to view athletes who have made great decisions to go on to college and in addition to the college experience play basketball at the next level.

Experience is part of the process.  With this program you can expect that your coaching and support staff will help guide you through the recruiting process to help you get a good fit.

Development is an important piece that often gets overlooked in place of winning.  Not here, individual time is given to help each athlete improve something that they can take back with them to their winter team.

Fun is an essential element.  Making fun a part of the mix makes it easier for the athlete and parents to want to get better and increase the desire to go to the next level.

Work is absolutely necessary.  With it you can overcome many things that may stand in your way.

Attaining Success is Difficult.....That's what makes it great!!

All of us wish that success came easily.  No one likes difficulty...no one likes adversity.   No one likes obstacles and setbacks.  But it is the struggle for success that makes success so great.  If success came easy, everyone would have it.  The fact that success is difficult to attain is what makes it so special and rewarding.  - Steve Fraser, Olmpic Champion
