Rise With UsWISCONSIN RISE
BOYS CLUB TEAMS

Wisconsin Rise club teams are different than your typical club or AAU team. While we do want to win games, we emphasize youth player development over winning at all costs. The focus is TEAM FIRST, decision making, and skill work, rather than showcasing the individual.

Cost: $450 + uniform package*. Cost includes practices, tournament fees, gym rental fees, team and player insurance, and equipment.

Spring Schedule: Team practices will start around the end of March and run through June depending on what tournaments we enter.  Before the first tournaments we will practice 2-3 times per week, then as we move thru the season we will average 1-2 practices per week.

Winter Skills – We will conduct several skills sessions during the winter to have the boys play together.  Usually Sunday nights to not interfere with school team schedules, and as time permits.

Practice Sessions – Each practice will include a mobility/stretching session, agility/plyometrics, individual skill work, team drills, and scrimmage.  We will also have scrimmages between the 12U and 13U teams.

Competition Level – We will make every attempt to ensure our teams are playing at the skill-appropriate competition level.  We want the games to be competitive to ensure a great experience for both players and parents.  Before signing up for tournaments, we will be clear on the competition level of the tournament, or contact the tournament directors to make sure we are properly placed.

Other Commitments: Multi-sport participation and family events are respected.  Please communicate with us in advance on the dates you will be gone so that we can properly plan practices and games.

Uniform Package & Team Store: Uniform cost is approx. $150 which includes reversible jersey top, reversible shorts, shooting shirt and practice jersey. Uniform will be used for minimum of 2 seasons with Rise.  Our team store for parent apparel and accessories will be open in Feb 2025.  For those who played our 2024 spring season, we will have the same uniforms (below).

Tryout Makeups: If your son cannot make the specific age-group time slot, he can attend the other tryout.  If that does not work, makeups are available.  We will have him join one of our group workouts for evaluation.  Please still complete the tryout registration here and write a note in the makeup section.

"I love how there are photos of the hand shakes and the huddles and the whole team experience. This was so much more than a basketball team. The boys and the parents were so welcoming to Liam and I. I’m so happy this was about more than winning. The development and time on the court was what I expected, but the friendships that grew so easily was by far the best part to watch. Thanks for a great season and the wonderful photos. Lots of practice and prayers that we can be part of this next season." ~ Nikki
