PROGRAM DETAILS
Get an early start on the Sharks Spring 2027 Season.
Sharks Basketball Academy is holding an early evaluation for current 9th–11th grade boys interested in playing with Sharks during Spring 2027.
This is an opportunity for our coaching staff to evaluate players before the high school basketball season and begin identifying potential players for our 15U, 16U and 17U spring teams.
This is an early evaluation and does not replace our regular Spring 2027 tryout process.
Current Sharks players and new players are encouraged to attend. Players should attend both evaluation dates when possible.
