Because of the momentum… Because of the growth… Because of the conversations happening inside this community… We are adding a BONUS WEEK to our Four-Week Boot Camp. That’s right. We’re not done yet. We’re going one level deeper so we can start this season the right way. 📅 PARENT ZOOM MEETING 🗓 Sunday, February 22nd 💻 Zoom (Link coming soon) 🚨 All parents are required to attend. This is not optional. This is alignment. We will also have coaches on the call so we can bring everyone together in one room — parents, players, leadership — unified. 🎯 WHY THIS MATTERS We’re using this bonus week to: - Reset and clarify expectations - Align player expectations - Align parent expectations - Align coach expectations - Establish communication standards - Build structure before competition Strong seasons don’t start in games. They start with clarity. 🔑 THIS IS ABOUT ALIGNMENT When expectations are unclear: - Frustration grows - Emotions rise - Confidence drops When expectations are clear: - Roles are understood - Development accelerates - Trust increases We’re setting the tone early. I appreciate every parent who has leaned in during this Boot Camp. I’m excited for this season. I’m excited for the growth. And I’m excited for what happens when we move together. Let’s start this season the right way. Let’s have a great, great, great season. 💪🏽🔥

Family, Our Parent Meeting is mandatory and sets the tone for the entire season. We’ll cover: ✅ Practice schedule ✅ Season expectations ✅ Communication system ✅ Tournament & exposure plan ✅ Player standards on and off the court When parents and coaches are aligned, players grow faster. At least one parent must attend. Let’s start this season the right way. 💪🏾
