ABOUT OUR CLUB
Kids who are active and involved in sports are more likely to do better in school and lead healthier lifestyles as adults. The mission of Erudite Basketball is to keep girls active by developing their basketball skills. At the same time, we encourage excellence in the classroom. Our young student-athletes will grow as basketball players through a focus on the fundamentals which in turn allows them to become leaders when they return to their school teams in the fall.

STUDENT-ATHLETE FOCUS
A student-athlete is defined as a student who participates in an organized competitive sport sponsored by the school in which he or she is enrolled. Student-athletes must balance the roles of being both a student and an athlete at their school. The school could be a grade school or major university. Erudite Basketball was formed with the student-athlete in mind. Our coaches understand the relationship between academic achievement and athletic opportunity…and we reinforce that relationship regularly throughout the season. We actively recruit players who maintain a 3.5 GPA or better to ensure that our kids understand the importance of good grades.
