Our Core Philosophies:

HOLISTIC DEVELOPMENT

We believe in developing the entire athlete for maximal results, including striking a developmental balance between:

• Individual skill & IQ.

• Building the athlete & the human.

• American & international hoops.

• Fun & intensity.

STUDYING THE SCIENCE AND THE ART

Our philosophy revolves heavily around the science behind skill acquisition, the Constraints-Led Approach, and psychology. But, we also realize how important it is to see the game as an art that must be studied and applied with abstract ideas, a unique eye, and on an individual basis.

INNOVATION & CREATIVITY

We see the game and the development process with no limits. Whether it's a willingness to experiment with new concepts, development of unique team concepts, or the creativity we look to instill in athletes, innovation is at the forefront of our methods, and we're determined to never stop learning.
