    Re: 2009 tryouts u-15, u-16 and u-17

    This is Camp Darryl!

    The Camp Darryl Basketball Academy(CDBA) travel basketball program may not be for everyone. We hope and expect that those who do accept our invitation to participate will develop a sense of pride and loyalty to the CDBA. Participants in the CDBA share the same ideas and are committed to ensure that all active members experience the sense of devotion that we have.
    After your playing days within the program are over, we'd like nothing more than for you to look back fondly and with great satisfaction that you were once a part of the Camp Darryl Basketball Academy.


    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    PLAYER INFORMATION(U-15 through U-17):

    The Camp Darryl Basketball Academy(CDBA), participates in a competitive travel basketball environment. We hold tryouts prior to each session(year). Depending on a player's level of skill and commitment to basketball, the player may be invited to become a member of the CDBA.

    All boys in grades 8 through 11 are invited to take part in our tryout. Players who demonstrate the essential ability, attitude, work ethic, and respect for other players, our staff, and other participants may be invited to become a member of the CDBA.
    With accepting this invitaion comes a set of expectations. The player's time and dedication are critical. An understanding of what it means to be a part of a team; team pursuits often require that individuals must adjust personal goals and adapt to fit within the team concept.

    A POSITIVE ATTITUDE is crucial! This is not only evident in a player's willingness go hard in each practice and games, but also off the court. This is also evident in the way that teammates, coaches, parents, teachers, and others are treated and respected.
    Your commitment to the CDBA is important. We do understand that many players have other endeavors. We're ok with these endeavors unless they conflict with the player commitment to the CDBA. This can be disruptive to the team, but more importantly it can inhibit to the player's basketball growth.
    Our session for our U-15 through U-17 teams runs March 29 through July 31 (we don't play or practice in June).

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    PARENT INFORMATION:

    Your time commitment is somewhat large. Player's will practice 1-2 times per week at a gym located in/around the Kalamazoo area(mostly K-College or at KVCC). Tournaments will generally start on Friday evenings and end at the latest early Sunday evenings.

    Travel is required! Our teams will play highly competitive teams from all over the United States and possibly other Countries. We select tournaments that are competitive and that give the CDBA members personal growth and development opportunities as basketball players and as people.

    FINANCIAL COMMITMENT:The fee for the 2009 U-15, U-16 & U-17 session will be $550 (after tryout). All travel related expenses are borne by the player and/or his family. Some financial assistance may be available.
    Please contact Darryl Matthews at 269-217-6498 or [email protected] for more information.
