Everybody’s “elite” until signing day comes.

‼️‼️And how many parents would stop pushing their kid to play?!

[Kurt J. Stubbs II @Ohiohshoops]

I’m curious if social media magically disappeared how many kids would still “really” want to play sports. How many kids “love” playing organically? Just one man’s opinion, but I think the number is low.

[Macon Progress Basketball @MaconProgressBB]

After this spring on the circuit, one thing stood out: Most of the country is tougher than Oregon kids.

Mentally, physically, and emotionally tougher! That’s the separator!

Who are you in moments of adversity?

I hope our kids attack June with a mindset to build toughness!!

Adults… it’s NEVER about you when you’re working with young people in any capacity… Remember that

[The Sport Parent @TheSportParent]

Parents:

Your child may be the coldest 🥶 in the park and at LA Fitness but if they can’t remember plays for their HS teams they can’t play. Structured basketball isn’t street-ball! 🤷🏾‍♂️

Your care has to be bigger than your fear. The desire to get better has to be larger than your fear of failure.

Are you willing to fail forward? Or are you going to allow your fear of how you might look stop you from striving to get better?

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

Tournaments didn't replace playgrounds & open gyms. They replaced free play. Those aren't the same thing. The more adults organize every minute of youth sports, the fewer opportunities athletes have to develop creativity, problem-solving, leadership, and genuine competitiveness.

[Derek Deprey @derekdeprey]

Unpopular opinion…

AAU doesn’t need to lead to college basketball to be worth it.

For a lot of players today, it’s simply part of becoming competitive enough to play varsity basketball.

Not every player is chasing a Division I scholarship. Some are chasing a varsity roster spot. Some want to make the rotation. Some want to help their high school team win. Some just love the game.

And that’s enough!

I think we’ve become too obsessed with using college basketball as the scoreboard for whether a player’s journey was worth it.

What if they never play another organized game after high school?

If they loved the practices… loved the tournaments… loved the road trips… loved the teammates… loved competing…

Wasn’t that valuable too?

Not every basketball journey has to end with a scholarship to be a success.

Sometimes success is simply getting better, building friendships, making memories, learning life lessons, and squeezing EVERY DROP out of a game you love.

If you’re playing on Court 1 or Court 37, play hard.

The love of the game doesn’t care what division you’re headed to.

Not everyone can perform when the lights are on.

The real ones perform when the lights are brightest and it matters most.

The pretenders fold in those moments.

Which one are you?

[Macon Progress Basketball @MaconProgressBB]

June means June, not May 25-31.

We leave players alone all of June.

Don’t interrupt us during May.

We won’t interrupt you during June.
