Spring/Summer Player Development Program
5-month program focused on Individual and Team Development through League Play, Tournaments, Team Workshops, Private Training, and Skills Clinics & Camps - all led by certified, experienced staff; High School/Club Coaches, College/Overseas/Pro playing experience
It’s more than just playing games!
Courtside 360 is excited to announce details for its club team platform - Courtside United Basketball Club - with more resources, support, and player development opportunities for 2026 teams. Courtside’s Crossover Coaching format provides players an opportunity to receive instruction by all of its certified coaches and trainers with college/pro playing experience.
In an effort to provide both the athlete and Courtside more time and opportunities during the evaluation process, we’ve extended the tryout window to a 10-day skills and competition format through Skills Sessions, Scrimmages, and Open Practices. These tryouts are a great way for athletes to learn more about Courtside, meet coaches, and compete against other athletes in structured game-like scrimmages and skill-focused drills. Get on Courtside’s radar!
No-Contact ‘Skills-Training-Only’ option available for High School athletes still in-season
Due to the large number of prospects and limited time to evaluate every participant, we highly encourage athletes to attend as many tryouts as possible – players new to the program and those club members returning. Not only does each session help athletes feel more comfortable and confident, they also provide Courtside a more comprehensive analysis, and increase players’ opportunity with the program.

Season Format: Courtside provides three divisional team programs – Developmental, Competitive, and Elite. Players selected will be placed on one of these teams. Through year-around programs, Courtside offers athletes of all skill level development opportunities at the Rec level through League Play in addition to our Competitive and Elite Tournament Team Divisions. We believe in quality over quantity in relation to the number of tournaments that teams participate in, and are more concerned about the development of each player on the roster than team rankings. For Middle School/High School Elite Divisions – platform, exposure, and recruitment is key. Regardless of Team Division – Player Development is our focus!
