SPRING SESSION ENDS MAY 21, SUMMER TEAMS & CAMPS SOON, Space Avail, DETAILS BELOW

May 8, 2024

So spring Bulldogs & ALPHA Elite are happening now but Spring is coming to an end.  With that, Summer ALPHA, Bulldogs and our week long Summer Day Camps are starting in June.  And, you can sign up now and start practicing this week with our Spring teams or wait till June 4, whichever you prefer.  And keep in mind, we have pro-rated pricing so you won't pay for time you have missed.  Summer Bulldogs starts Tues June 4.  FYI, This year, we have teams, 2nd grade to HS and take boys and girls.  So, if you want to play Summer Basketball with the top teaching and fundamentals based program in the Tri Valley, please read on.

So Spring Bulldogs are happening NOW and we have limited space available for your kids.   First of all, we practice and play games in the best facilities in the Valley.  We are practicing, mainly Tues / Thurs in the gym, mainly at Pleasanton MS (exact times, dates & locations on our calendar link).   Our ALPHA Kids are also doing an extra practice on Fridays for a 3rd workout each week.  And all of our players play weekend games.  This year, most of our teams playing in the MVP League or in local tournaments.  But for some of our kids, our beginners, they play here in Pleasanton in our "in-house game series" that we set up and control to ensure competitive balance while they are improving their skills.  And we have some other teams coming in to play us.  We are doing this with the goal for every player to move eventually to the more competitive MVP League and or Tournament teams.  But what we dont want to do is throw them in "the deep end of the pool" before they are ready, making the experiance no fun for them.  That all said, ALL OUR KIDS WILL PLAY GAMES.

Note we take all levels of players, boys and girls, from Beginner to Elite.  And all learn fundamental skills through practice, hard work with great instruction and they all play games.  But for our ALPHA kids, our Elite players, we play what we feel is the best schedule in the Tri Valley this year.  We played MVP and local tournaments in the Spring and as always, we are taking 7 teams to Reno over Memorial Day Weekend.  For Summer, we will do local tournaments with a big event in Sacramento to wrap up Summer.

Summer Camps - We also have 4 weeks of Summer camp.  Each week is Mon to Fri, 9 AM to 2 PM.  Each day of camp, we do an hour of fundamentals station work, we do dribble series, free throws, a week long 1 x 1 tournament, transition work, an offensive and a defensive lecture with corresponding drills and play two 5 x 5 games.  Camp will be in San Ramon at Gale Ranch and Windemere MS.  Weeks are June 10 to 14, June 17 to 21, July 22 to 26 & July 29 to Aug 2.

Anyway, The Spring session is March, April, May and the Summer session is June, July, Aug.  We will also have a Wednesday/Friday night Skills Clinic open to all players starting June 12  Limited space is available in all our programs.  So if you want to get your kids involved in any of these great programs, email me at PGLeClaire@comcast.net and I will get you all the details and invite you out to a practice this week to try it out.  Thanks and hope to meet you all soon,
