Building champions on and off the court
At TEAM PRIDE Basketball, we believe in developing the whole athlete. Since 2018, we've been committed to fostering discipline, confidence, and teamwork, creating a foundation for success that extends far beyond the game.
Our journey, our purpose
TEAM PRIDE Basketball began in 2018 with a singular mission: to provide young athletes in Crestview, Florida, a place to grow comprehensively. Beyond just winning games, we focus on building character, fostering discipline, and instilling confidence. We offer real skill development, basketball IQ, and a family-style culture where every player is valued. Our goal is to help every athlete become the best version of themselves, preparing them for high school, college, and life. This program isn't just about winning; it's about building confidence, creating leaders, and giving kids a foundation they can carry into high school, college, and beyond.
The P.R.I.D.E. difference
At TEAM PRIDE Basketball, our values are more than words — they’re the standard we live by. Every practice, every game, every lesson is built around the principles in our name:
P – Perseverance: We teach athletes to push through challenges, stay focused under pressure, and keep working even when the path gets tough. Growth happens when you refuse to quit.
R – Resilience: We help players develop the mental toughness to bounce back stronger, learn from mistakes, and stay confident in who they are.
I – Integrity: We expect honesty, accountability, and doing the right thing even when no one is watching. Character matters more than talent.
D – Dedication: Our athletes learn the value of consistent effort, discipline, and showing up every day ready to improve.
E – Education: We believe in developing the whole student-athlete, including strong academic habits and deeper game understanding. These principles build not just better players, but better people.
Who we empower
TEAM PRIDE is built to help athletes at every stage grow with confidence, discipline, and purpose. Each group gains something unique from our program.
Beginners (Elementary & Middle School): Players new to the game gain strong fundamentals, better coordination, confidence through positive coaching, and an understanding of teamwork and discipline.
Intermediate Players (Middle School & Early High School): Athletes with some experience level up with advanced skill development, basketball IQ, competitive drills, and leadership skills.
Advanced Players (High School & College-Bound): Serious athletes prepare for varsity roles or college opportunities with position-specific training, game-speed reps, strength/agility conditioning, and recruiting guidance.
Every player who joins TEAM PRIDE walks away with confidence, discipline, resilience, leadership, and a sense of belonging and family. We develop players, but more importantly, we develop people.
"Joining TEAM PRIDE Basketball was the best decision for our child. They've not only improved their game dramatically but have also developed incredible confidence and discipline. It's truly a family where they feel valued."
