📋 Program Overview

The Flight Prep Program is structured into three competitive tiers, ensuring athletes are placed in the right environment for their age and development stage:

• Junior Flight (Grades 4–7 / U11–U13) – Introductory competitive tier (part of JR NBA program). Athletes train and compete locally while learning core team concepts. Season: September–February.

• Flight Selects (Grade 8) – Designed for athletes ready for higher competition, focusing on regional play. Season: September–November. Optional weeknight skills sessions available. More details to follow

• Flight Elite (Grades 9–12) – High-performance tier with advanced training, structured team play, and recruiting support. Season: September–November. Optional weeknight skills sessions available.More details to follow

🔍 What to Expect
Athletes will take part in skill assessments, drills, and team play (over two hours of evaluation). Placement into one of the Prep tiers will be based on performance. Those not selected will be encouraged to continue development in our Skills Academy or JR NBA Pathway.

⚠️ Commitment and Expectations
All athletes—returning or new—must attend tryouts. If selected, players are expected to fully commit to the season. Participation in other club teams during the Prep season is strongly discouraged due to scheduling and travel demands.
