2012 Basketball Stars of America AAU Tryouts & Skill Development Programs Begin This Weekend!

2012 Basketball Stars of America Spring AAU Tryout Schedule:

In 2012, Basketball Stars of America will be hosting our Spring AAU Tryouts at 5 fantastic sites. They are Sewickley Academy in Sewickley, Hillcrest Christian Academy in Bethel Park, Kiski (Prep) School in Saltsburg, Shady Side Academy in Pittsburgh/Fox Chapel and Family First Sports Park in Erie. We will also be using these as our main practice sites this season. Players and their parents may choose which of these sites they would like to practice at. Please look below for Tryout Dates and Times. In our 5 years, BSA has sent more than 60 players on to Division 1, 2 & 3 College Basketball, many with full scholarships!

*Cost of tryouts is $40 per player if pre-registered by January 31, 2012 and $50 per player if registering after that. This is a one-time fee and players may attend as many tryouts as they would like to. We prefer players attend at least 2 tryouts and encourage players to attend as many as possible, however only 1 is necessary. All players who attend tryouts will be notified via email within 2 weeks of their first tryout whether they made a team. If they do make a team, the tryout fee will go towards their season tuition. This season, we will have our Travel/Elite Teams as well as having an In House League for younger players.

Many players prepare for their tryouts and the upcoming season by doing the AAU Open Gyms, Boot Camps, Academies, Elite Workouts and other Development Programs throughout the next 3 months including all tryout days.. There is an extra cost of $35 per player for each of these sessions (You may also purchase 5 sessions for $150, 10 sessions for $250 or 20 sessions for $400).

We are expecting over 1,000 Basketball Players to try out for Basketball Stars of America this spring! To avoid long lines, we are asking everybody to pre-register for tryouts by filling out and mailing in the printable Registration Form with payment or you may Register Online.
