Our coaches are passionate about the game of basketball and are students of the game. They are natural born teachers. Within the Erie Elite program we have advisory from coaches at all levels of competition. Seasoned youth, high school and college level coaching.

Our passion is the development of young leaders both on and off the court. We strive to give our kids the tools to be ELITE regardless of their race, ethnicity, religion or economic status. When we say we are ELITE it means that success means that you need to be strong in all avenues of your life.

E - Education : Most student athletes will not play professional sports, or maybe even college sports. Rather, they must rely on education to ensure their future success and stability. We expect that our players be elite in the classroom as well as on the court.

L - Leadership : True leaders take responsibility for their own actions and those of their teammates. We stress the difference between taking accountability for your own actions rather than placing blame on others. A good leader will often command the attention of an entire room, sometimes without even speaking. Actions speak louder than words.

I - Integrity : The quality of being honest and having strong moral principles that you refuse to change. We reinforce the significance of integrity at all times.

T - Teamwork : Teamwork is the collaborative effort of a team to achieve a common goal. To develop teamwork we must instill a sense of trust amongst each other, the foundation of which is integrity, accountability, and reliability.

E - Effort : Effort begins with the mindset that nothing will be given to you. Sports mirror life - anything you want in life, you must earn it.
