About Us
Our Mission
The mission of the program is to foster national amateur sports and develop amateur athletes for that competition.
These goals are accomplished through techniques that are designed to improve basketball skills, enable players to compete at a high skill level, develop self-confidence, promote sportsmanship, and teach the value of teamwork… all through the sport of basketball.
The Eclipse strives to sustain a competitive and respectable organization that maintains integrity at all times and to promote amateur basketball for all players regardless of race, color, creed, religion, national origin or ancestry.
Coaches & Staff
“I was surrounded by amazing players and coaches that were willing to put in the time to help me improve my talents and develop life skills that would make me a great basketball player, and an even better person.”
