SQUAD CLUB TEAMS
Our most comprehensive player development training program. Program consists of weekly team practices, fundamental training sessions, strength & conditioning, high performance training and local/international tournaments. For U10-U13 players this program starts after the Dream Hoops League concludes. Players from the Dream Hoops League will have an opportunity to tryout for the U10-U13 teams. These existing players in the program are considered priority and we do not recruit outside of the players already in the program. If a player decides to forgo their tryout invite then outside players will be provided the opportunity to tryout for the U10-U13 teams.
SQUAD YOUTH PROGRAM: DREAM HOOPS LEAGUE
The perfect entry point into basketball and the Squad program. We encourage all our players interested in playing for our club teams to join this program first as club team priority is given to existing players in this program. For a period of 8 -10 weeks we train twice as much as we play. Players enter an evaluation combine and are evenly selected to teams which compete every weekend in the Dream Hoops League U10-U13 Divisions. Program includes 2 weekly training sessions. All games are held at 1 location, the St Pats HS gym, no entry fee, great family environment to learn and foster a love for the game.
