Playing Time

Playing Time
AAU is the most competitive form of basketball in America for school age players. The top AAU teams are usually better than the top school teams because the top AAU teams are school All-star teams. Even the middle level AAU teams are very competitive. Playing time in the AAU is earned. Most teams have a 12 player roster, but few coaches and teams have a 12 player rotation. Coaches have to play the top eight players a lot for them to develop and for them to develop a rhythm in any particular game. The starters are not always the biggest or fastest or even necessarily the best five players on the team. Playing time is earned through:
1. Practice attendance
2. Working hard
3. Willingness to be a team player
4. Overall attitude & work ethic
5. Skill level
Every players will be given a chance. However, we'll go with a rotation of players who we feel will give us the best opportunity to accomplish our goal.
