AAU Program

 

Bay Area Lava was established to be a highly competitive AAU basketball program in the Tri Valley Area. Our focus is on the athlete’s development through hard work and discipline. Please read below on what Bay Area Lava has to offer:

Practice Environment: We organize our practices to be competitive in nature, pushing our players to compete in every drill. Our practices contain disciplined coaching, innovative drills, and a professional atmosphere.

Tournaments: We enter into a variety of tournaments throughout the Bay Area. We compete in high exposure AAU events at SoldierTown and throughout the Bay, as well as local tournaments in the Tri Valley Area. By entering into different tournaments, we are able to compete against a variety of high profile teams throughout the Bay each weekend.

Schedule Flexibility: We offer multiple practice days a week, which allows our athletes to choose which practices to attend to best fit their schedules.

Affordability and Value: Our goal is to provide the best training, administration, and program experience at an affordable rate. Please view our Spring Info tab on the home page to learn about our rates.

Team Events: Team chemistry is an important aspect of a successful organization. Throughout the season, we coordinate numerous team events for our players to attend, such as Picnics and BBQ’s, attending high school and college games, and having team dinners. In addition to team events, we also plan to participate in community service events each year.
