NFLBL & Jr NBA WINTER LEAGUE REGISTRATION SHORTCUTS
AAU PLAYERS – BLUE CHIP ELITE INTENSE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
This program is personally directed by Coach Laettner. The program consists of pools of basketball-focused players who sign up to be evaluated and based on the current configuration of the age/grade/skill of the current player pool may be accepted and begin to participate in training. Players in the pool are continuously evaluated and considered for our competitive team activities throughout the entire year. For a more detailed explanation visit this page.
The players in this pool are currently on or are on track to be on their middle/HS teams and our local and travel AAU tournament teams. It is not a pay-to-play program and is very rigorous.
The current cost structure is a $25/mo membership fee and $125/mo gym practice plan. Any activity costs for games/leagues/tournaments are additional which are determined and paid for at the time your player’s offer to participate in the particular activity is presented and accepted.

COMPETITIVE TEAM TERMS & CONDITIONS
- All COMPETITIVE registrations are currently preorders and are not a guarantee of being placed.
- You will not be charged until your player is picked by a coach and placed in a roster slot.
- Once your player is placed your registration will be charged and there are no refunds.
- This is NOT PAY TO PLAY, playing time is at the squad coach’s discretion.
- If you cannot handle watching your player play an entire game and winning by 30 or riding the bench and losing by 30 but still want to play basketball sign up for our pay-to-play recreational divisions here.
- Any parent or player who questions a coach negatively about playing time may be removed from the roster and the coach can fill their slot with the next player waiting in the player queue. The removed player may be offered a slot on a recreational team if one is available.
More Competitive Teams may be added as additional gym space is secured and additional coaches commit and submit their requirements, so check back often if you are looking for a team or a particular coach.
