Westonka Youth Basketball Association

Mound-Westonka Traveling Basketball strives to give our players the best opportunities to enhance their abilities under the best conditions. We believe the best conditions exist when a more challenging and competitive environment is created. Competition against players of equal or greater skill level is both physically and mentally healthy for the athletes and aids in their development—not only as basketball players, but as young adults.

We strongly believe that to build a successful basketball program no athlete should be held back. That is why everyone is given the opportunity to play up if their skill level far exceeds players of their own age. For an athlete to excel, no limits should exist.

Every player in the program should think like a winner and work hard to achieve that goal. Ultimately, by the time they reach the high school level, we want them to win graciously and lose with dignity.

In the end, it is our job to prepare our basketball players to take their skills to the next level and serve as a “feeder” system for the high school. If we can accomplish that, we will have the foundation in place for a successful basketball program and become a dominant force on the court for years to come.
