Parents, Players, Never Heard of Classics AAU Basketball?
We are a 501(c)3 non-profit, volunteer organization, dedicated to promoting the development, growth, and appreciation of sports in the growth of our area's youth. We have been around since 1981 - one of the first girls AAU basketball organizations in the DC area. We have remained small, and focus on developing high quality players and teams. We do not form teams just to give everyone who shows up at tryouts a team to play on. We have at most 2 to 3 teams in each age group. Not all tryouts athletes may make a team and returning players may not continue on a team!!
Over the last few years, our girls teams have qualified for the AAU Nationals and rank among the top teams in the country in their age divisions. Our teams are also consistent winners in area leagues and tournaments. In 2002, our 1988 and 1990 girls teams qualified for the National Championships, with the 1990's finishing 5th in the Nation! In 2003, the 1990's again finished 5th in the Nation. In 2004, our 1988 and 1992 teams competed in their respective Division 1 National Championships. In 2005 our 1994 team placed 5th in the Division 2 AAU Nationals and our 1988 team placed 16th at the U.S. Junior Nationals. In 2006 our 1994 team placed 4th in the Division 2 AAU Nationals. In 2007, our 1992 team placed 17th in the Division 1 Nationals and our 1996 team, placed 13th in the Division 2 Nationals. Our boys program is in its second year and our teams are developing and winning local tournaments.
We are an all volunteer, non-profit organization with committed and dedicated coaches, parents, and players. Teams are individually coached and managed. The club supports team, player and coach development, and tryouts with minimal annual dues of $50/player/season ($100/year). Team costs for uniforms, gym time, tournaments, leagues, coaches expenses and supplies are additional and are typically $500-$700/season. Teams are encouraged to use our eScrip.com fundraising program, solicit tax deductible donations as Classics is a 501(c)3 entity, and hold other fundraising events to support the team. Also we appreciate the support of many sponsors - see our Sponsors Page for more details!
