Spring/Summer Teams
Welcome to the Spring Youth Academy Teams
During the Spring season, we offer teams for players who would like to play for TEAM M-XIV within the Jr. 3SSB Circuit or the HYBL Circuit.
Jr.3SSB Spring AAU Tryouts are September 26th & September 27th for Boys & Girls. AAU Practice begins early March.
Spring HYBL Tryouts start the 1st weekend of March for boys and girls. Practice begins the 4th week of March! It will offer development, games and great competition.
Our Academy Teams are the right choice for your player if the following matter to you as a parent:
Development: Your player is interested in playing games but not sacrificing individual development while doing so. Practicing on 'plays' is important but at this age there still needs to be a huge emphasis on individual development while teaching team concepts. The M14 System was created to ensure our professional coaching staff does not lose focus during the course of the season. The point of basketball is to play in the game (we haven't forgotten that!) but at the youth level we believe individual development has to be a priority as well.
Coaching: ALL our coaches are paid at M14Hoops (part-time or fully employed). This allows the focus to be on every player and because the focus is on each player improving. Our coaches must pass our internal training classes to be able to coach a team as well and are managed by our Directors. This allows us to trouble-shoot any issues quickly and professionally.
If 1 or both of these items matter, our Academy Teams are the right choice for you!
Our Academy Spring Summer Teams programs starts March and end mid-June. ***8th graders season will end in July because they are off in the month of June to take part in their high school basketball camps.**
