FINAL WEEK TO REGISTER! DEADLINE OCTOBER 30TH!

For those that plan to try out for the Middle School team…. We do understand the issue it creates for parents and players that our registration deadline is before try outs. We recognize there are those that will still want to play basketball if they do not make the school team. In this situation, they should still register by the deadline of Oct 30 and attending the screening on Oct 31. If they do make the school team and do not want to play on both teams we will process a full refund.

Little Minds, BIG Ideas! Let’s Build Some Brain Power!

Who knew building important life skills could be so much fun? Our Art of Brain Building program combines storytelling, movement, and creative art projects to help children learn important skills like whole-body listening, freezing our bodies, box breathing, and personal space awareness! Through fun, hands-on activities, children build confidence, strengthen their focus, and learn ways to manage their bodies and emotions—all while having a blast!

Our next session starts in November! Don't miss out on this exciting opportunity for your child to learn, create, and grow!
