New girls basketball club forming in Lawrence Co. Ohio

[LCU]

My name is Nick Miller. I coach the girls high school team at Coal Grove. I am starting a new basketball club for girls. This coming year I would like to be able to field teams in the 11u, 12u and 13u age groups. We will use AAU age eligibility dates. The purpose of this new club is to provide the experience of club basketball without some of the problems, such as practice travel and costs. The teams will practice in Coal Grove. It is my hope to have girls from all of the schools in the Lawrence County represented on our teams. All OHSAA bylaws will be followed. At this time I am not looking to be AAU affiliated. I am looking at GBA tournaments at the present time, which do not require AAU affiliation.
I am hoping to have 8-10 girls in each age group. These girls will practice together, providing scrimmage competition. I will charge only for what is needed for a modestly priced uniform and tournament fees. Coaches will all be volunteers. Coaches will pay their own expenses. I will help coach and I have other coaches lined up. I plan on holding tryouts when junior high seasons wrap up. I will post this information online soon. I hope to start practice in the beginning of March. I am looking at playing in 5-6 regional tournaments with the farthest distance being Cincinnati or Columbus.
If you have a girl that might be interested, you can pm me or call my school number. I can be reached at 533-6345 ext. 1361.
