The MWA Elite-Local:-(Formerly the Michigan Hoopers & Michigan Lady Pride) AAU Basketball Club is designed to expose new players/families to AAU basketball, build competitive teams from season to season, have roster continuity and offer the opportunity for players to move up to a State or National year team within the MWA Elite club structure. We offer team opportunities for boys 1^st - 12^th grades and girls 3^rd-12^th grades.

The 2017/2018 MWA Elite-Local AAU season is made up 5 Individual seasons:-Fall-I, Fall-II, Winter- I & II, Spring and Summer. Each season will last anywhere from 7 to 11 weeks.

Each season will coincide with the AAU Licensed Detroit Leagues. 2017-18 will be the 10th Annual year for the D-League and is the most competitive league in Michigan. Teams travel in from all over Michigan, Ohio & Canada to compete in the league. The D-Leagues provide mid-to upper level AAU competition, weekly games and appropriate age brackets. To learn more about the D-Leagues go to http://mwabasketball.com/bbleagues.html

Local teams practice twice a week at Basketball City, usually play in 1-2 local AAU friendship tournaments and have a paid, non-parent and qualified coach. Players can opt in and out of the Local Team program during the AAU calendar year. We take every precaution to keep rosters together from season to season. This is great way to have a greater chance of success on the AAU circuit.
