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.

Spring tryouts run from late January through early April, depending on the city. This is when most teams are formed. Fall tryouts run in August and September. The rest of the year, players can be evaluated at a team practice when a team has an open spot.

An evaluation is a tryout for one open team spot. Your player joins a team practice, and the coaches see if that team is a good fit. Fill out the interest form to ask about an evaluation in your city.

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.

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.

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

Not every player is placed on a club team, but no one gets left behind. A Player Development Membership (PDM) gives players a monthly package of PSB clinics, camps and/or academies, so they keep getting better. Players can also be evaluated for an open team spot during the year.

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.
