Click Here for Online Registration for Piedmont Basketball Foundation’s teams for the 2012 MVP Flight basketball leagues for boys and girls in grades 3 through 8!
Tryouts will be held the weekend of February 4-5, and all players trying out must be registered. (Payment will be made after determination of teams.)
The tryout schedule will be posted here as soon as gym time is confirmed.
The MVP leagues are competitive leagues and our program offers players with a strong interest in basketball an excellent opportunity to develop their fundamental basketball skills, and to learn the essential elements of offensive and defensive strategy and team play.
Our objective is to instill in all of our players a lifelong love of basketball, whether they continue with the game into middle school or high school or whether they decide to pursue other sports. We do not expect players to be committed exclusively to basketball, though attendance at practices and games is strongly encouraged as it is important to the overall quality of the experience for each member of the team.
Our coaches are members of our local basketball community and volunteer parents, all of whom typically have significant basketball experience either as former players or coaches–most at the high school level and some in college. All have prior youth basketball coaching experience and are individually selected by the PBBF director of coaching.
We made exciting improvements to our program last year and once again our MVP program will include weekly, customized skill development sessions run by experienced Triple Threat Academy trainers or varsity level coaches. Our goal is to teach every young player essential, fundamental basketball skills, that will allow them to compete with confidence at the MVP level and to build a solid foundation for their future basketball development.
We continue to strive to offer a high quality basketball program to not only Piedmont players but also kids from nearby communities–on par with all the well-known competitive programs in the East Bay–at a significantly reduced cost. Our registration fee this year is $315—which covers gym rental fees, skill session trainers, and all MVP Flight league fees. Returning players may use their uniforms from last year or elect to purchase a new one. New players must purchase a uniform at a cost of $60.
Schedule: Tryouts will be held the weekend of February 4-5. and team rosters will be announced in mid- February. Practices will begin in mid-February and will usually consist of two 90 minute sessions per week. The MVP Spring League games begin in mid-March. There are 8 league games (plus one extra weekend of playoffs for the top four teams in each division) played each weekend through mid-May.
Please look for further announcements about our tryout schedule on this website and in the Piedmont Post. Meanwhile, register your player for the PBBF MVP Spring League teams by clicking on the link at the beginning of this post. We look forward to seeing you this season!
Supporting all things hoops,
