Way To Go Jacksonville Nets
CONGRATULATIONS to the Nets Organization for an outstanding showing at the AAU State Championships. We had three teams to reach the Final Four. The results are as follows: U15 - Runner Up; U17 - 3rd Place; and last be not least U16 - STATE CHAMPS!!!!!!! All 3 teams qualified for Nationals. Good Job to all the Jacksonville Nets players! All the players showed up and played their best this weekend.
We would like to commend the U16 for overcoming the adversity over the last couple of weeks and showing how loyalty and commitment can result in a positive outcome. After the performance given by not only our team but the entire Nets association this weekend, I hope you can appreciate the joy the coaches get from coaching your kids. As an association, we put on a very strong showing at the State this past weekend. As we think back to the start of the season and how the kids are playing now, their level of play and the things they are to do, we are just amazed and proud.
The summer is coming and we would like to have all of our players available during this stretch as we will hit up the LIVE PERIODS – meaning we will be playing this summer in front of college coaches with the focus on getting these kids maximum exposure and that exposure turning into college scholarships. We as the Nets simply do not want your son to just play for the Nets. Our goal is for your kids to go college with the assistance of the Nets.
