Please provide any comments or feedback that you feel would help our staff improve the program. Basketball is not my son’s best sport but his coaches this year worked really hard to teach him and his improvement throughout the season increased 5x from the start of the season. The coaches did a great job coordinating plays that involved all of the players and not just a few good players. The coaches did a great job identifying what each player was good at and improve that skill but also teach them other skills to improve their overall ability of the game. I was extremely impressed with our coaches and their compassion and willingness to teach all the boys.

In addition to my son improving in the sport, he also made new friends. Team sports are so important at this age and I am glad he had an opportunity to be on a team with a few friends, make new friends and improve his game. I can’t say enough good things about our coaches and experience this year.

Please provide any comments or feedback that you feel would help our staff improve the program. My child really really enjoyed the developmental league. Coaches were beyond amazing, and she learned a lot. The sign up online was not as clear as I think it could have been. Email communications with dates and information was vague at times. The names of practice locations were vague for people not familiar with the league and facilities and it was hard to get a response back with clarification on this. I also think the league could be better advertised. I had several parents say they wish they had known it was an option (maybe advertise through the elementary schools with a flyer). Overall so thankful we did it, just providing some feedback! Thanks for all you all do for our kids!

Please provide any comments or feedback that you feel would help our staff improve the program. 1. It seems excessive to buy same uniform year after year. Feel like there is a way to create our own “store” and have every player turn in uniform after every season. Reissue at beginning of next season and buy the handful that need to be bought. At the very least we shouldn’t have to buy shorts every year.

2. At the end of the season the coaches should submit a new draft order for their team which would be available to the next group of coaches at draft time. Some dads know every kid and their talent level. A lot don’t. So this would help even the playing field.

Looking forward to next year!

If no, please provide feedback as to why you feel this way. Mostly. We have team names but don't get to use them. I'd love to have NBA team jerseys like we have for rec baseball and rec flag football. It really doesn't make any sense why we can't get NBA jerseys also.

Please provide any comments or feedback that you feel would help our staff improve the program. Experience was mostly good. So the one comment I have to hopefully improve rec basketball is not a slight to how it went this past season. I would, however, love to figure out a way to get more kids involved. Speaking specifically about second grade, where we are playing man to man defense, most of the season became a one-on-one game between the teams' best players. Is that really what we want here? As a coach, I refused to do it during the season. In the playoffs, I felt pressured to partake in the one-on-one model just so we had a chance to win a game. It's unfortunate for the kids who just have to stand around and not be involved in the offense at all. This really needs to get figured out.

Please provide any comments or feedback that you feel would help our staff improve the program. There’s a massive discrepancy between the competitive basketball kids and the actual Rec league basketball kids. The scores will prove my point, but the competitive kids do not need to be forced to play rec league. It takes the fun out of it for the kids. If you’re leaving the competitive kids on the rosters then you should allow us to play zone to counter the one really good kid scoring 20+ points a game.

Please provide any comments or feedback that you feel would help our staff improve the program. Charge people a few more dollars each season and use that money to hire high school players to run the clock and the book. Parents do not need to be doing that. I’m sure most people would gladly pay a few extra dollars to avoid that job.

Please provide any comments or feedback that you feel would help our staff improve the program. My son was excited to go to every practice and fame. Our coach Davis and Michelle were so involved and interested in their progress.
My only complaint would be that there is no Basketball through out the year.
