The Hawk Youth Basketball is owned and operated by Coach CJ and Salina Ford. Here at Hawk Youth Basketball we have two main goals. The first is to provide quality instruction in all aspects of the game of basketball. This instruction will include both skill building and development of self-discipline, dedication, and confidence in each athlete. The second goal is to prepare those players that have the desire, athletic ability, and academic standing to play at a competitive level. We believe that a competitive athletic experience can enhance social development, contribute to mental and physical health and teach values of teamwork and responsibility. AAU is how Coach CJ got her opportunity to retain a Division I athletic scholarship and now as a coach she wants to help her players have the same opportunity.
Coach CJ has over 14 years of experience. Her experience goes as follows:
14 Years of player development (overseas, ncaa)
Professional women’s basketball player: FIBA Europe
NCAA division 1 assistant basketball coach
NCAA division 1 Basketball Player
Hawk Youth Basketball currently has 11U and 14U teams.
