play harD HOOPS WARRIORS GUIDE FOR SUCCESS
Thank you for your interest as we continue to build out our Warriors effort here in Chicagoland! The PHH staff strives to provide a unique and effective developmental opportunity for the area’s most committed, talented youth players. The foundation of PHH City Warriors travel basketball is our structured, disciplined and passionate environment where commitment, personal values, and principles are the priority. Working in partnership with parents, we provide a high quality atmosphere for character development, seeking to prepare boys and girls for the pressures of playing at highly competitive levels of hoops and for life beyond.
PHILOSOPHY: PHH, entering its 14th year of basketball in the Chicagoland area, offers a high level basketball educational experience teaching the development of critical team concepts in today's game and an emphasis on strong fundamentals for each player.
We will utilize offensive and defensive concepts to prepare players for high school basketball. Our teams will learn motion offense to foster spacing and ball movement along with a strong understanding of how to create good shots. A particular focus of the program is on half court man-to-man defense to help aid athletic development and its importance to succeeding at the next level.
Success on the floor will be a result of this process, and we are not defined by championships, rather on the impact we leave on people. Our staff will hone in on the key leadership values and principles that we hope to pass on to today's youth. Rather than focusing exclusively on wins and losses, the top goal of PHH Warriors is to create memorable team experiences through which we positively impact a player's growth on and off the court.
