🙏🏼😢 A CALL FOR AN ASSIST 😢🙏🏼

I ask that all of our followers (friends, colleagues, competitors, business partners, etc) please share this information. Adding to your stories is effective.

During this holiday weekend, I received information that no Coach (or anyone) wants to receive. 2 players within our program, along with their Mother and 2 siblings, suddenly and tragically lost their Father/Husband late Saturday/early Sunday.

I ask that you please consider a donation to this cause. Further, please spread the word. We'd like as many eyes on this cause as possible to assist this family during a time of unimaginable grief and stress.

I thank you all for consideration and for helping us spread the word to help out this amazing family during an unthinkably difficult time.

10U WRAPPING UP 2022!

First photo is from August. Our first 10U tournament.

We went 0-4. Averaging 7 points a game. One entire game with only 2 points (yikes).

Second photo shows some progress this year/ season. We were 0-11 prior to this weekend. But consistently scoring 20 points or so and keeping games close against quality opponents at the same age and grade level.

Well, we got our first 3 wins this weekend.
Consistently scoring 25-40+ points per game (not an entire weekend).

It took a few months of growing pains and commitment from kids and parents. We had a plan, and everyone bought in with a majority of first time players. There were some rough games to watch, know. But no one even asks to play 8U or 9U games here

I can't even explain how excited and happy we are for this group! At such a young age, showing such character and commitment to bettering themselves on and off the court!

Just know, if we're struggling at an age group, give it a couple of months. If we stay together, good things are gonna happen. And it's that much more satisfying when the wins start coming in! That's what OUR program is all about!

Thank you for the partnership and shared vision
G365. Our kids and families are loving the results!
🏀 🏀


Who wouldn't want to play with 🏀 ?
Do we even have room for you to play with 🏀 ?

Also a shout out to Coach Ricardo and Coach Gus for all the help here! The players love them and they do a great job when when I'm dealing with 13U and 14U making me crazy!
