ELITE CLUB

FAS ELITE Club

FAS Elite is licensed by the AAU (Amateaur Athletetic Union).  It is a much higher level of competition for the more advanced athletes who have progressed beyond recreational league play.  FAS Elite teams travel and play against other top-level teams in weekend tournaments.  This requires a higher level of dedication, devotion and commitment in both time and effort by the athlete and their families as weekend tournaments can take up the entire weekend.  However, if your goal is to compete in high school basketball or beyond, this program will empower you to get there.

OVERVIEW

FAS Elite teams are formed through tryouts and feature professional coaches.  Open to any 3rd to 11th grade athletes, tryouts are held monthly depending on how many players are currently on the team and if additional player(s) are needed.  Each team consists of a maximum of 11 players and is based on the grade of the athlete. 

COMMITMENT

 FAS Elite's  basketball year is broken up into two seasons:

Winter

• 3rd to 8th Grade: January thru May
• High School: February thru May

Summer

• 3rd to 8th Grade: July to mid- December
• High School: July thru October

If you choose to play, you are fully committed for the entire season and are expected to travel outside of the city to play in weekend tournaments and/or leagues.  Most tournaments will be in Orange County, depending on the quality of the tournament and the needs/skill levels of the team.  Each athlete and their families are required to sign a commitment contract for the season prior to being selected on a team.  

Our goal is to enable you to advance and excel to the highest level of play.

To allow the athlete to participate in multiple sports, a year-long commitment is not required, only a seasonal one.  Thus, the athlete can play in the season(s) that best suits their schedule.
