Our Developmental Teams
RISE Aztecs | Beginner

RISE Bruins | Intermediate
Boys & Girls · Ages 10–12
The Bruins are for players with some basketball experience who have started showing stronger skills, confidence, and competitiveness. This team is a great fit for players who are ready to be challenged more, pushed harder in practice, and begin developing basketball toughness.

This includes players who are ready for the next step after the Bruins, players entering RISE with previous basketball experience, and older beginners who are just getting started.
