Surge Team Info
We’re excited to welcome back our returning Surge players and families! If you’re new and interested in joining our more advanced basketball teams for the 2025–2026 season, we invite you to register your son or daughter for free to express your interest.
Our competitive Surge teams are designed for athletes seeking a higher level of play and development beyond what recreational leagues offer with our focus being on skill development, team play, and creating a positive environment for players to grow and improve. These teams will participate in multiple development tournaments throughout the fall, winter, and spring, with tournaments held in Tacoma, Seattle, and Everett.
New and interested players are encouraged to attend a practice session for an evaluation by one of our coaches. This informal assessment helps determine if there’s a good fit within the team structure and competitive level.
We’re excited for another great season of growth and competition — hope to see you on the court!

Program Goals & Philosophy:
Sports Beyond basketball club is for players with a desire to improve their skills, compete, and have fun! Our goal is to help players improve both on and off the court.
Sports Beyond is a development program that teaches players the fundamentals and concepts that will help them compete at high school varsity level.
Our focus throughout is on player and team development where we create a positive team environment for players and families to grow and support one another.
Players will train weekly with their team to develop ball handling, passing, footwork, shooting, rebounding and defensive skills while learning team offense and defense concepts.
commitment
We encourage players to be involved in other activities—well-rounded experiences are important. However, select basketball requires a higher level of commitment to build team chemistry and compete effectively.
One additional activity is usually manageable, but when multiple commitments—like recitals, scouts, or social events—regularly take priority, it shifts the team toward a recreational feel. If basketball won’t be your player’s top extracurricular, please consider whether consistent attendance at practices and games is realistic.
If frequent absences or scheduling conflicts are likely, our Development League (D-League) may be a better fit.
What makes our club different?
More opportunities to practice throughout the season than recreation league at a more affordable cost than a typical select aau program.
Opportunities for players to be more challenged as they improve their skills by competing on a tournament team.
Emphasis on player improvement on and off the court! Our goal is to help players development positive values such as teamwork, work ethic, sportsmanship and character! We emphasize team over, individual and character above winning!
Quality coaching and instruction to help players improve their skills.
Players learn the fundamentals and skills needed to compete while learning basic offense and defense concepts that will help increase their basketball IQ.
