FAQs

How many days a week does a team practice?

Most teams practice 1-2 times per week and some areas also offer training on other days. Most practices are 1 1/2 to 2 hours long. Most practices are between 6 pm and 9 pm during the week. The location of practices depends on the area that most of the kids live that are on that team.

How far does a team travel to play?

In select basketball, this all depends on the quality of the team. Most teams travel in Texas and we try to keep players playing close to home when possible. We are supporters of Premier Basketball so we follow those events when we can. You can visit Premier Basketball at www.premierbasketballtournaments.com.

Is my child allowed to play on other teams?

This is left up to the coach you are playing for. Texas Elite does approve of players playing on their school team. Your school basketball should always come first but Texas Elite takes priority on all other events.

When does the season start and end?

High school teams and some 8th grade teams play from March until the end of July. The 7th grade teams and below begin in March and most are done by the end of June.
