4CITY : Represent

4CITY:Represent is our spring and fall "club" program designed to keep our most passionate players balling year round without giving up other sports or activities. It is a healthier alternative to most club/AAU programs that cost $1000's, take up every weekend, and often fail to deliver on quality coaching and player development. 

Represent players have biweekly intense practices with 4CITY's professional coaching staff, and then "represent" 4CITY in weekend games against other clubs in local tournaments, jamborees, or in-house scrimmages... all while adhering to our 4C Philosophy

SPRING '24 SEASON

We are excited to launch our spring 2024 4CITY:Represent season! A great group of professional coaches led by Coach Rob will lead all practices and games. This competitive but flexible program will help players develop their basketball skills, and sharpen their in-game decision making, while still being able to participate in other sports or activities.

The Spring '24 season starts the week of March 25th and finishes May 25th with each age group having two weeknight practices and either a Saturday practice or a weekend tournament.

See program details below.

Rosters will be selected the Monday before and based on practice progression and attendance. Saturday practices may not occur on those weekends, depending on how many players are available for tournaments. 

All local scrimmages and practices will be held at one of the following Palo Alto gyms:
- JLS Middle School
