Practices
All practices are scheduled in advance and players are expected to attend practices. Teams will normally
practice twice per week (one team practice and one skills clinic) for 75 minutes. Every effort will be made to
follow practice schedules as closely as possible, however, things happen. Please be flexible and cooperative
when practice schedules need to be changed.
(Fall AAU fees include ONE day of Fall Development Program. If interested in more than one day of the Fall Development Program contact Aaron Gildengorin.)
As there are school activities and other commitments, which may conflict with practice from time to time,
coaches will work with players and parents individually in those cases. To emphasize player responsibility,
the player (and not the parent) who will miss a practice is expected to notify the coach ahead of time that he
will miss practice and the reason why. Program basketball players are expected to commit themselves to a
rigorous practice schedule, and their team depends on them to do so. Playing time will be affected by
unexcused absences or tardiness.
