September Splash 2023 Registration Open (2 sessions!)
We are having our 9th Annual September Splash Program, this year will feature 2 sessions. The first is a 6-session, all in September, Shooting and 3v3 program. The second is also a 6-night clinic, all in October focused on Ball Handling, Scoring Moves, and 3v3/4v4 play.
THIS PROGRAM WILL SELL OUT IN 1-WEEK…Sign up now! We will have two sessions, grouped by age, all at Castillero MS & all have sold out in years past.
This year, due to high demand, we will be offering 2-Sessions of our Splash Program. The first is our 6-night September Splash Shooting and 3v3 Program. The second session will also be 6-nights in October with the focus on Ball Handling, Scoring Moves, and 3v3/4v4 scrimmages.
If you sign up for both sessions you’ll receive a discount!
Each year our goal is to get each kid over 2,000 shots in September working on form, footwork, shooting from spots, pull-ups off the dribble, free throws, and even 3’s. That will take up 45 minutes of each session and the remaining 45 minutes will be spent playing live 3v3 & 4v4 scrimmages (3 games x 12 min. each night) with a different focus each night being on all cuts/screens, pick/roll, handoffs, post-ups & triangles, in both half-court and full-court settings as well as the defensive side of the ball. Kids will play in different groups every night so they get to know each other better.
The fall program will be open to boys & girls 3rd grade thru High School however we will limit the number of kids in any one grade so that all kids in all grades (boys/girls) will get to an opportunity to play. These programs will get your player ready for the High School, Middle School, or NJB season which begins in November.

2023 AAU High School Tryout #3
AAU TRYOUTS for our 9th Year of DBA DRIVE Basketball
We will be forming teams for boys and girls starting in grade 4 through 8 and highly competitive High School teams (9th – 11th) again this spring/summer with DBA Drive Basketball. Last year we formed both Tournament and Travel teams that participated in high level AAU events and/or NCAA Recruiting Period events. Our tournament teams play local & Bay Area tournaments while our travel teams will also play outside of the area in Los Angeles, Reno, & Las Vegas.
In recent years we’ve had 18 highly successful teams in our and have repeatedly sold out fall and winter sessions as well. Thus, we intend to field another 18 teams for boys/girls and will be selecting top players from our tryouts to form one-to-two teams per age level and approximately 6 High School teams.
This is a tryout for a competitive AAU basketball club team and not everyone is selected for a team. We will be having multiple tryout dates but it is highly encouraged that you come to the first available tryout in your age group and suggest you attend multiple tryouts so that our coaches can get to know you better.
DATE/SITE: All tryouts are at Pioneer HS Main Gym
- Tryout #3 (after CCS Playoffs)
- Monday, Feb. 27th
- 7:30pm – 8:30pm = High School Boys
- If you cannot attend due to other practices/games, please notify coach@dbadrive.com and we will schedule a private evaluation on a weeknight. We also have another session of tryouts coming soon.
