Team Goals
- To help each youth develop their spiritual, physical, and educational gifts.
- To represent Christ-like attitudes on and off the basketball court.
- To raise money and gain more support so that the team may participate in AAU National Tournament.
We have yet to compete in the "real" AAU National Tournament due to lack of funds (even though we have qualified for "Nationals" the past two seasons). We are setting our sights high this season by pursuing a trip to the National Tournament in 2006.
What We Need
Supporters, like you, who would be excited to help us reach these goals. We had an incredible 2004-2005 season and this season, we are looking to build upon what we started. However, we need prayer and financial support from individuals and business sponsors.
Thank you for your support!
Coach Aaron Hjermstad
