P.G. Elite Middle School

Mission: Paul George Elite Basketball's mission is to provide an exceptional personal development experience through the game of basketball for youth by teaching the values of hard work, accountability, team play, competitiveness, and sportsmanship. We will provide comprehensive programs that help all student-athletes, from beginners to elite national-level players, become the best players and people they can be. 

Goals: To provide a positive culture where all children feel valued and supported through challenges and adversities, as well as their most significant accomplishments. The P.G.E. program aims to establish itself as the premier basketball program in the region and the nation.

Success Model: We will measure our success based on our belief in individual player skill development, providing opportunities for each player to play “creatively” and “instinctually” with confidence while teaching concepts on how to best implement their individual talents and strengths within a team structure. Our program model is to create teams that make us most competitive and put each player in the best position to develop and succeed. We understand the importance of play and will ensure that each player is assigned a role that benefits their team and, most importantly, their own development.

Program Financial Commitment $425.00 (annual): Participating with a club takes a commitment from both the parents and the players and coaches and staff. We require all players and families to make a one-time annual commitment ($425.00) to show their investment and dedication to the program. This fee covers your uniform package and helps cover the cost for coaches, gym rental fees, insurance, and miscellaneous events that your athlete will participate in throughout the season. We appreciate your support and belief in our program. 

Team Commitment: The expectations for both the “Select” and “Elite” teams are the same. All players must commit to a full club year (September 1st – August 15th) of participation in the club, prioritizing our program. Both teams will have similar schedules except for a few select events.

Monthly Club Fee: $175 per month  (Due on the first practice of each month) 1st Payment (Oct-1st)
