What Makes Team MP Different
This Isn't Pay-to-Play.
Most AAU programs stack tournaments and call it development. Team MP is built the other way around. We practice first — twice a week. We develop first. Competition follows — but it's never the point.

Teams are capped at 8 players. Every player gets real reps, real coaching, and real feedback. If you're looking for a program where your player actually gets better — not just plays more games — this is it.
We Practice
Real practices twice a week — not just warm-ups before tournaments. Players get consistent reps, real coaching, and real feedback every single week.
We Develop
Footwork, ball handling, shooting, defense, spacing, basketball IQ. We teach the game — not just the result.
We Compete
Fall and spring seasons. Weekend tournaments. Players who have earned it through twice-weekly practices get to show it on the court.
Practice Locations
Practice Close to Home.
We run four practice locations so families aren't driving 45 minutes each way for two practices a week. Team MP fits into your life.

Two Seasons
Fall and Spring. More Development, More Reps.
Traditional AAU is a spring/summer tournament grind with one practice a week if you're lucky. Team MP runs fall and spring seasons with two practices per week — more coaching time, more developmental reps, and more time for players to actually get better before they compete.
Fall Season
October – December
Twice-weekly practices, skill development, and competitions. The perfect way to keep improving through the school season.
Spring Season
February – May
Twice-weekly practices, skill development, and regional tournaments. Build toward the summer with a full spring of coaching behind you.
The Standard

Everyone Who Joins Team MP
Is Expected to Play Like a Dawg.

There's no top tier. There's no separate squad. There's one standard — and it applies to every player in the program from day one. Hard work. Coachability. Compete every possession. That's what it means to be a Dawg.

Teams are built through tryouts for players in grades 4–11. Two practices a week. Four locations. One standard across all of them.
