There are some good programs out there and parents need to be selective. I'm a product of A.A.U. and it can be a great experience for young athletes. I coached A.A.U.ball for 15plus years and had a great experience. It can be a great tool for young athletes.C.J.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-538710650323519584.post-73333472983711947552011-04-30T09:16:12.993-04:002011-04-30T09:16:12.993-04:00Some good points...However things have changed ove...Some good points...However things have changed over the years because of...you guessed it, MONEY.

Too many unqualified Dads coaching teams, too many unqualified/untrained people pumping up the heads of kids and parents....too many kids running around thinking that they are division 1 prospects based on what their parents and these AAU-types are telling them. AAU is glorified pick-up basketball. Some of these AAU "coaches" are making good money off the hopes and dreams of kids and their "don't know any better" parents. Kids, if you want to get better...get a ball, get to a basket and get to work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-538710650323519584.post-14309287376404460352011-04-29T22:53:47.563-04:002011-04-29T22:53:47.563-04:00And who cares?And who cares?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
