🏀 BALL IN THE AIR — FEET IN THE AIR!

One of the first concepts we want to teach our young players is simple: don’t wait for the basketball to get to you before getting ready to shoot.

When the ball is in the air, your feet should be getting into position. Get your footwork, balance, hands, and shooting mechanics moving before the pass arrives. Catch it ready to shoot — not catch it and then get ready.

That’s what Next Level 3on3 is about: teaching basketball the right way, then giving kids the opportunity to immediately practice what they learned in game situations.

We’re working to create new 3on3 clinics at Alondra Park, Del Aire Park, and Victoria Park.

🏀 More touches
🏀 More shots
🏀 More decisions
🏀 Better footwork and spacing
🏀 Learn fundamentals and use them immediately
🏀 Bring the FUN back into basketball!

Teach it. Practice it. Play it. Next Level 3on3.

👉 Check with your Park Director for more information and upcoming clinic dates.

LET’S BRING BACK 3-ON-3 YOUTH BASKETBALL! 🏀🔥
This summer, we will host Next Level 3-on-3 Youth Basketball Tournaments at local parks throughout the Carson area, LA, and Compton, beginning June 15th.

When we were growing up, we loved going to different parks around LA and Compton to get in those 3-on-3 runs. That’s where players learned the game.

No overcoaching.
Players learn how to think the game, read the defense, make decisions, communicate, and create without waiting for a coach to call every play.

No hiding in a zone.
Everybody has to guard somebody. Players must move their feet, defend man-to-man, compete, and take pride in stopping their matchup.

No sitting around waiting for touches.
With fewer players on the court, everyone is involved. More touches means more chances to dribble, pass, shoot, cut, screen, rebound, and make plays.

3-on-3 develops players because it keeps them in the action.

We are stuck on a 💵💵💵dream with little return. 

Let’s break this down for the average non sponsored travel ball team:

$2,280…
For 4 games.

📝
Let’s stop pretending.

This isn’t about development.
This isn’t about exposure.

This is a system…
and everybody’s paying into it.

Parents are paying thousands…
Kids are getting a few minutes…
And everyone’s being told:

“Just keep showing up.”

For what?

So your kid can play 6 minutes,
touch the ball twice,
and fly home with a highlight clip nobody important is watching?

Meanwhile—

No strength gains.
No skill development.
No real feedback.

Just another weekend…
another bill…
another “next time.”

So I’m going to ask the question nobody wants to answer—

If your kid isn’t getting better…
why do you keep paying for it?

👇 Let’s talk:

Are we investing in players…
or feeding a machine?
