PrimeTime Summer Camp returns!

Our one-of-a-kind Summer Camp is returning this June and I would love for all TrueLeague athletes to experience one of our very best programs! We have six sessions this season, the most we have had since Team Esface started running camps. We also get to have it back at Arrillaga, a great facility that allows us to run both of our camps at the same time! Please reach out if you have any questions, but make sure you check out the link below to register!

college prep Update!

Our high school College Prep 17U team is coming off of their first Adidas Gold Basketball Tournament finishing with a perfect record at 4-0 and have yet to lose this season overall! It is a great testament to the players and coaches, largely influenced by our current TrueLeague On-Court Director Coach Mike Barton. Our 16U College Prep Team is currently coached by another TrueLeague Coach, Coach Zarian, who went 2-2 in their first Adidas Gold Basketball competition. They are playing some of the best teams and players in on the West Coast and we highly encourage all families to check them out if you can!

BASKETBALL 101: INCREASE PARENT’S HOOP UNDERSTANDING

One of the best things about this clip is it is able to showcase all the ways players can use two feet on every finish. When they are able to consistently be on balance, they have a good chacne to finish at a higher percentage then they do when they try going off one foot. We encourage all parents to offer this same advice to your player as this will allow them to learn proper footwork. As they get older and become more athletic, that is the best time a player to start adjusting to more 1 foot finishes in their overall game. This will help eliminate turnovers as well, as playing off two feet gives players time to think and evaluate before they make a play. I have seen a lot of improement with every player when it comes to this skill, its been awesome to watch!

We crave to learn and grow. The best way for us to grow is with your valued feedback. Please use the above link anytime to let us know how things are going (positives and negatives) for the TrueLeague. There’s an option to get in contact with an HQ member in the link as well. We look forward to hearing from you!
