2. HOW LONG IS THE AAU SEASON (Practices/Tournament)? The season depends on the program.  We guarantee that each team will participate in at least 5 Tournaments.

Typically four games are played per weekend (2 on Sat./2 on Sun).

7. WHAT TYPE OF COMMITMENT IS INVOLVED WITH THE BLUE DEVIL?
Each player is expected to make every attempt to attend all games and all practices.  We expect Blue Devil's games and practices to take priority.  However, there are always conflicts and communication with the coaches is crucial.  Advanced warning allows for any necessary adjustments in practices, scrimmages, play review, or game plans.  Please communicate with your coach.

9. WHO ARE THE BLUE DEVIL COACHES?   Our coaches are former high school coaches and travel team coaches.  They love the game of basketball and take pride in teaching the game and further develop the girls and boys skills and foster the love for the game of basketball.

10. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BE A BLUE DEVIL? We try to keep fees to a minimum. Unlike some programs the Blue Devil coaches do not get paid. The fee is determined by the number of tournaments entered and the cost of gym time. Typically 5-6 spring tournaments is $450-$600 per player  (Fees might change depending on increase in tournament fees and cost of gym time).  Teams can decide to enter additional tournaments at the team's expense.  Uniforms and travel expenses are not included.
