AAU basketball

Looking for AAU basketball in Baltimore?

Many families call youth club basketball “AAU basketball.” The name comes from the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU), a national organization that runs youth sports events. Over time, “AAU” became the everyday word for any competitive travel basketball team that plays outside of school.

PSB Baltimore club teams are what most families mean when they search for AAU basketball, AAU teams or AAU tryouts near them: tryouts, teams grouped by grade and skill, weekly practices with trained coaches, and games and tournaments through the season.

PSB is an independent club program. It is not part of the Amateur Athletic Union, so we call our teams club teams. See upcoming Baltimore tryouts above, or fill out the interest form.

Pro Skills Basketball of Baltimore has become a huge part of our family’s youth basketball journey. As a parent of two participants, I’m impressed by the thoughtful, well-managed environment that prioritizes the overall growth of the kids. Equally impressive are the coaches, who genuinely care about skill development, focusing on fundamentals, basketball IQ, and the kids' confidence, tailoring instruction to each player while celebrating progress and challenging them to grow.

Questions parents ask

Club team FAQs

Is PSB an AAU team?

PSB runs club teams, which many families call AAU basketball. PSB is an independent club program and is not part of the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU). Our club teams offer what families look for in AAU basketball: tryouts, trained coaches, weekly practices, and games and tournaments through the season.

What’s the commitment level?

Club team memberships run 5 to 11 months, depending on the city. Families can expect 2 to 3 practices or workouts a week, and games or tournaments on 2 to 3 weekends a month. We believe in long-term development, not quick seasons.

What if my player plays other sports?

We support multi-sport athletes. Many PSB players also play soccer, football, baseball and more. Tell us your schedule and we will find the best fit, either a club team or a Player Development Membership (PDM), which has more flexibility.

What if we can’t afford the full fee?

Every city offers payment plans. Some cities also have limited financial aid for club team memberships. Contact us to learn more.

What if my player doesn’t make a team?

Not every player is placed on a club team, but no one gets left behind. A Player Development Membership (PDM) gives players structured training, weekly practices and internal games, with a chance to be re-evaluated for a club team during the year.

Can my player try a practice before committing?

In most cities, PSB runs open clinics, camps or evaluation sessions before the season starts. They are a great way to experience our coaching and culture. Contact your City Director to see what is available.
