Brentwood High School’s boys basketball team has a strong tradition.
Expectations
The first expectation is for every player to be a student-athlete and to represent themselves in a positive manner on and off the floor. There will be a set of rules and guidelines given to players that make the team. Last year’s varsity team had every student carrying over a 3.0 GPA.
The second expectation is for each player to be coachable, a great teammate and always trying to improve as a player. Teams are made during the season while players are made during the off season. This means that each player is trying to improve their conditioning and their individual skills on their own.
As a team there will be several practices during the spring. The summer is a very important part of the success of the team. The summer season will last from the end of school until the last week of June. The last week of June and the first week of July are dead periods where there will be no contact with the players and a great time to take a vacation. There will be open gyms later on in the summer but nothing that is mandatory. When school starts in the fall we will condition and have open gyms planed tentatively every Tuesday and Thursday after school when possible, but it will depend on when the gym is available. If an athlete participates in more than one sport they should concentrate on the sport that is in season.
Tryouts
Tryouts will start on the first day of practice in October. Tryouts will last until the coaching staff determines if a prospective player can make the team. The summer season and spring practices are used to evaluate prospective players. If a student is new to the school they should introduce themselves to Coach Bond.
Contact
Throughout the season the key word is communication within our basketball family. We work better when we work together. If you have any questions regarding BHS Boys Basketball, please contact Troy Crane.
