Arizona All-Stars Basketball Academy: Intense Training & Results...Guaranteed!

Arizona All-Stars Basketball Academy

Year-round basketball training program for those serious about the game

Some say that Basketball does not create character, but rather, reveals it.   We believe that the intense heat from the fire of this great sport simultaneouly forges both a development and revelation of character.  

Unlike many other major sports, the basketball stage reflects everything for all to see and does so at a continuous fast pace.   Good or bad, strengths and weaknesses will manifest themselves very quickly.    Time outs are brief, there is no waiting on the sidelines while others are at the plate or on offense, defense, or on special teams.   The game demands that all five players on the court play both a high level of offense and defense at all a times or they will quickly be embarrased by stronger, quicker, faster, more fundamentally sound players.   Basketball has no mercy on weaknesses.  The player must be able to put the ball in the hole or stop the ball from being put in the hole or he won't be on the hardcourt for long.  Period.

Enter the All-Stars Basketball Academy.   We train and we do so smart, hard and incessantly.   But we are not for everyone.  Not all parents and student-athletes can maintain the intense pace and commitment to mastering both the art and the science of basketball that we require to realistically be able to succeed at this extremely competitive game.   There is no short cut or miracle pill that we offer to transform a good player to a great player.   We don't come from "the league" or claim to "know-it all" about everything because we don't know everything.   But we do know basketball and how to develop elite players.  

It takes hard, smart and incessant training to go from good to great.   Going from good to great is our specialty.   If you make basketball your life and are willing to sacrifice everything but academics in the name of the game, we are the basketball academy program for you.   We don't want to waste your time nor do we want to waste ours.   Life is short and we want to make the most of it at our academy.  

If you want to make lay ups, in traffic, with either hand, we are for you.  If you want to make those lay-ups with reverses using either hand while elevating from either foot, we are for you.  If you want to make 20 out of 25 3-pointers, consistently, we are for you.  If you want to be at 90% or higher with free-throws, we are for you.  If you want to master the art of creating your own pull-up shots and making them consistenly, we are for you.   If you want to truly control the ball with your ball-handling, we are for you.  If you want to be known as a defensive stopper, a specialist at not allowing elite players to score, we are for you.  If you want to learn how to attack the paint with abandon showing no fear and in control, we are for you.  If you want to box out and rebound as if your life depended on it, we are for you.  If you want to increase your basketball IQ, your ability to pass and to have what we call "Nash Vision," we are for you.  If you are willing to put the same effort into our program a year from now as you are the day you start, we are for you. 

If not, there are many club teams, academies, trainers and others who will embrace you because we will not be for you.

Arizona Warriors Holding Club Team Tryouts

The All-Stars Basketball Club Teams & Academy: A New Approach To Basketball

Let's face it, it takes a lot of time and money to receive the necessary training to develop the basketball skills necessary to become a truly elite player.   Very few players are born with the the body of a Lebron James, Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant.  Even if the genes are there, the skills still must be developed through lots of sweat, pain and tears.   When the dedication and commitment is present, the student-athele still must go to a mentor who knows what he is doing in skills development.  And there is the rub, academies, schools of basketball and individual or group training programs are expensive. 

The real skills development does not take place in weekend games as much as it does in the gym where the unglorified practice of training over and over again is the key to success in the sport of basketball.  So how many hours a day must a student-athelte train?   Is it one or two hours a day or just a couple of hours a week?   It all depends on how far one wants to go in the sport.  Today, with the proliferation of club basketball programs, many student-athletes are showing up at high school tryouts with descent skills and many non-club players are at a disadvantage.

The unfortunate situation is that most kids cannot afford the costs associated with supervised training.  More often than not, student-athletes and their families are under the false impression that playing on a club team and training one hour a week with the team with a few tournaments scheduled every other month is the key to success.   They could not be more wrong.   To truly become a good player one must first find an organization that is focused on providing the best training possible with price becoming the non-priority factor.  

Multiple training hours must be made available to the student-athletes and at little cost.   But who will offer such a great deal?   Enter the Arizona All-Stars Basketball Academy which was created with these points in mind. Great training, lots of hours and at little cost is made available to those who show the dedication, commitment and respect for the art of basketball.

The "AZ All-Stars - Native" Club Team Debuts at the Southwest Showcase Summer Championships

  

 

"WHERE NATIVE BASKETBALL HAPPENS"
 

______________________________________________________________________________________

Some of the top athletes in the history of the United States include Native American icons like Jim Thorpe, who was considered one of the most versatile athletes in modern sports.  He won Olympic gold medals in the 1912 pentathlon and decathlon, played American football at the collegiate and professional levels and also played professional baseball and basketball.

Today, more modern native athletes inlcude Soboba Tribal member, 6 foot 8 inches Josepth Burton an All State basketball player who graduated from high school in 2009 and was awarded a basketball scholarship to play for Oregon State.  He recently met with President Obama and high expectations within the native american community exist for this basketball phenom.

Reservation basketball or "Rez Ball" as the native community adoringly refers to its basketball, is a cauldron of talent just waiting to be discovered.  But why has there not been more native ballers surfacing to the general population?  For one thing, the handful of kids who actually have graduated high school (the dropout rate on reservations is 40.7 percent according to some estimates) let alone made it to college is dismal compared to the general  population. 

When it comes to basketball, native youth have played the game their whole lives but they have played in a hoops black hole since college coaches don't even look for them, let alone watch them.   The situation is very similar to the kids in the inner city who who have to fight through things like poverty, alcoholism, drugs, disfunctional families and who often have to do it without the person who can funnel them to some topflight program. 

Enter the All-Stars Basketball Club Teams & Academy.  Founder and basketball club coach Jose Morales describes his experience in scouting out Arizona's Native American community as "a community that has long revered its basketball and whose high school games and tournaments draw hundreds and even thousands to support the obvious talent that is there for all to see in full display".   

With this experience in mind, the All-Stars Basketball Club Teams & Academy is debuting with a mostly native AZ All-Stars team in this weekend's Southwest Showcase Tournament.  The Southwest Showcasse tournament series is one of Arizona's top venues where the state's youth basketball community consolidates with the best club basketball that the area has to offer. 

Debuting with the Arizona All-Stars -Native team are a talented group of players bringing and upgraded "Rez Ball" style of play in the likes of:

• Timothy Johnson - Deadly 3-point shooter, strong rebounder, penetrates "Lebron Style".
• Bear Mosley - Shot blocker extraordinaire, owns rebounds, 6' 2" at 14 yrs old and still growing.
• Josh Gooday - Passing ability that simply "wows" the crowd, hustles and strong dribbling skills.
• Joshua Primaeaux - A stopper on defense with a shooting range sure to deliver 3-pointers.
• Robert Loring - Smooth guard game all around allowing him to play both point and shooting guard
• Marco Morales - Talented point guard with excellent 3-point shooting skills and a playmaker.
• Jarred Gittens - Rebounding skills the likes of Dennis Rodman and a strong post game.

The plan for the All-Stars system is to help make a positive difference amongst America's youth to include celebrating the country's multi-cultural legacy and the All-Stars see the Native American community as a very important segment of America's multi-cultural heritage.  With this focus, the All-Stars are confident that it will be sooner than later that the next Jim Thorpe and Joseph Burton will surface from the All-Stars Basketball Club Teams and Academy.
