The mission of the Lady Phoenix is to provide the area's top female athletes with a year round opportunity to develop advanced fundamental basketball skills and to grow into accomplished, self confident basketball players and responsible young adults. Our goal is to develop basketball players who are actively recruited by college coaches from Division 1, 2 and 3.
ENVIRONMENT
The coaches and parents strive to provide the athletes with a highly disciplined, focused, competitive, and fun-filled environment in which players learn the value of setting goals, working hard and achieving. The vigorous and fair coaching style is founded on constructive criticism and praise and is most effective in instruction as well as preparation for college coaching styles.
EXPECTATIONS
The coaches value and respect each player and take an interest in the player's development in basketball and as a person. The coaches expect from players: top effort; top commitment to attend practice and games, and utmost respect for the coaches, referees, parents, and teammates including herself.
The parents are to encourage and respect the development of their child and her teammates as well as the coaches' efforts to coach their child. Parents and players will be expected to participate in fundraising to defray team expenses.
Players, parents and coaches must exhibit good sportsmanship towards one another, opposing teams and the referees as per the National AAU/USSSA Guidelines.
