League of Legends Basketball
“Legendary Status…Rising Above Excellence & Greatness”
The purpose of the League of Legends Basketball is to establish and maintain year around basketball for students in grades THREE through TWELVE. League of Legends provides an avenue for youth basketball teams to develop, execute, excel, and advance in their team play and individual skills through our tournaments and league formats.
In addition, the League of Legends Basketball will serve as a platform for college recruiting scouts. They will observe and monitor athletes as they continually advance each year while working towards scholarships to be proficient in their future education and basketball endeavors. Our goal is to assist teams and players to compete in competitive basketball competition while advancing in all levels and maximizing their skills, allowing them the opportunity to compete at the highest level possible.
League of Legends Basketball primary focus is three fold. 1.) The aim is to seek, attract, and provide an atmosphere for college recruiting scouts to observe future athletes for colleges and universities scholarships. Recruiters can observe and monitor youth athlete’s progression as they advance in their basketball skills and educational years. 2.) League of Legends Basketball has chosen to join Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) to bring in and host AAU sanctioned competitive basketball events for youth through our tournaments and to improve and increase exposure for youth’s college scholarships. League of Legends tournaments are an extension to our Super Regional Championships where teams can qualify for AAU World Class National Championship events. 3.) League of Legends Basketball will host Invitational Tournaments and Super Regional championship events. League of Legends Basketball will serve as a platform to network and bring a variety of new competitive teams in our district and region to compete in both local and regional tournament events. This will be called our “Super Regional Boarder-less Connection,” where teams in our district and all over the region will have opportunities to qualify for AAU National Championship competitions through the League of Legends Basketball organization.
