OUR PHILOSOPHY
We play an intense, fun, open court game, forcing our opponent to play from end-line to end-line. Our style of play demands sound fundamentals, cooperative team play, enthusiasm, and a positive attitude. We want totally committed and totally involved players. There is only one way to gain success and that is through total preparation; success is a choice! It's the spirit of the athlete that counts. It's how she thinks, and what she believes, and the stength of her desire. We want players that have ability, but beyond that, we want individuals who have the right attitude, hustle, and love for the game. You can be sure there will be a great deal of thought and planning going into every phase of our game. We attempt to teach success and strive for excellence. There are high expectations for both the players and the coaches. The coaches will give you everything we possibly have and expect the same in return from you.
PLAYER EXPECTATIONS
1. Be Intent. We will not be outworked or out hustled. There are no shortcuts to sucess. Strive for perfection.
2. Train. Earn the right to be proud and confident of your condition.
3. Play and Live with Consideration. Unselfish team play and spirit are the foremost essentials for the success of the team.
4. Be a Student First. You are in school for an education. Keep that foremost in your thoughts. You become mentally tougher on the court by being mentally tough in class and studies every day.
5. We Expect Your Best. The greatest student, the greatest athlete, the greatest person is the one that gives their all.
See you on the court!
