Northeast Elite Basketball Program
Northeast Elite has 30 Boys and Girls AAU Teams with various levels of ability and age. All our teams compete in the Fall & Spring and our youngest teams have the option of also competing during the Winter. The majority of our teams play locally while some more competitive teams are chosen to play regionally on occasion. Our most advanced teams will play in Regional Events during the Spring and early Summer where they receive college exposure. Similar to Private Clubs and other AAU Programs, this is for kids that love and want to advance their skills as it relates to basketball.
Our difference: We encourage our young players to pursue other interests and activities while advancing their basketball skills and IQ. This is all done while providing you, the parent the most responsible and professionally run youth athletics program in the area.
In addition to our AAU teams, we offer Basketball Skill Development & Clinics for every skill level during the Fall, Winter and Spring seasons. Finally, we offer our famous Summer Sleepaway Basketball Palooza which is held over 5 days in July and then again in August. This camp is for the summer and basketball enthusiasts out there looking to kick back, play and get better at hoops, meet kids from all over the northeast and enjoy all that a traditional summer sleepaway camp has to offer.
