Competitive, character-building recreational leagues offer affordable alternative to AAU ball
PLAINFIELD, Ill., Sept. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — Announcing the start of its 15th season, Premiere Hoops (www.playforrings.com) continues to be among the best recreational basketball programs in greater Chicago, with leagues designed for boys and men. In the Maywood area, boys can participate in the Fantasy Combine, which is a feeder program for the next level of competition. Fantasy Development Leagues are held in Glen Ellyn and Downers Grove, while men's Open League games are played in Downers Grove. The complete rundown of leagues is available here: http://www.playforrings.com/Leagues.html.
"Our goal at Premiere Hoops is to give players with hoop dreams a chance to realize those dreams," explained President Bill Leach. "The programs we offer are designed for boys and men who have a passion for the game. But it's more than just a game: we use basketball as a tool to teach kids important life skills and values. By fostering hard work and dedication, we help players work toward their ultimate goals."
Structured in large part like the NBA, the authenticity of Premiere Hoops is what makes it more than the average recreational basketball program. Leagues begin with a short pre-season camp, followed by a draft. Experienced, volunteer coaches will provide hands-on personal training, giving every player the opportunity to maximize their innate talents. Each team wears real NBA uniforms and play for real championship rings and a trophy.
The future looks bright for Premiere Hoops. The company has plans to secure a third site for its Fantasy Development League in 2014, bringing the total to four. On the drawing board as well is a dedicated basketball training center. Finally, Premiere Hoops looks to break into the AAU circuit next year; two fully sponsored fantasy league all-star teams will take the court for the spring season, complete with custom uniforms, shoes, travel bags, professional coaching staff and more.
