Welcome Power Rise Family

Friday, January 18th, 2013

The purpose of the Team Power Basketball program is to provide student-athletes a chance to
showcase their talents in National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), Amateur Athletic
Union (AAU), United States Specialty Sports Association (USSSA), Youth Basketball of
America (YBOA), and Recruiting Services sanctioned and certified event across the United
States of America. This opportunity allows student-athletes to enhance their basketball
development skills and gives them a chance to compete with their peer across the country in
their respective age groups. The potential of a college athletic scholarship is greater for student-
athletes that participate on these types of levels. Our aim is to assist the student-athletes in
earning their high school diploma and/or preparing them for higher education. We work with
each student-athlete to make sure that they are on course to be approved for the National
Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Clearinghouse, which governs a student-athletes
acceptance into NCAA associated college programs.

Tryouts

We are currently having tryouts for boys in the 3rd – 11th grade on every Sunday from 3pm – 5pm.  If you are interested in trying out for the Team Power basketball program, please feel free to contact:
