Cobra Boys Grades 4-8

How do I become a Cobra?

Please see the information above. For any further questions, contact edandrea@splitsecondbasketball.com for any inquiries.

What if I can't make practice?

We expect players on the Cobra teams to be committed to their individual and team development. This means players need to make every practice they can and prioritize their Cobra training. However, because we support mulit-sport athletes, we recognize that players will miss some sessions. If a player can not make at least 80% of practice and games, this must be communicated to the coaches during tryouts.

What if I can’t continue in the program?

We are looking for players who are committed for the entire season. However, if circumstances dictate that a player can no longer continue in the program, players will be charged up to and including the calendar month after they give written notice of withdrawal. The remaining months of the season will not be charged. No refunds will be given for upfront deposits/costs such as gear or tournament fees. Any players who have prepaid for the whole season will be refunded by the same schedule as those on monthly payment plans.

What is included in the program fees?

A gear package, coaching, gym rentals, insurance and all training sessions are included in the tuition. Game costs such as League or tournament entry fees, player and coaches hotels and travel to tournaments will be billed to families. New players, or returning ones who need a replacement uniform, must add-on a uniform to their registration through our League Apps software.

The tuition will consist of an initial non-refundable deposit and monthly payments of a few hundred dollars/month. If you are interested in a discounted lump sum payment option that saves on credit card fees, please contact Lesley@splitsecondbasketball.com

Can I play on another Club basketball team?

No. It does not work for players to be on multiple club teams.  We encourage kids to play on their school team. Our goal is to make them strong, confident players on their elementary, high school, university, provincial, national and professional teams.  However, playing on any other Club team creates difficulty for players in terms of their commitment, schedule, understanding systems, playing styles, culture and values.  The Cobra program is designed to give players ALL the training, conditioning, skill development and games they need. However, if players are looking for extra training, as long as it is not in a “club team” environment, there is no problem getting individual training outside of Split Second. Feel free to check with Split Second coaches first to see what additional training options we have available for players. If you would like a more in-depth explanation of our rationale or need clarification on whether something is a “club” team, please contact Eric Butler at eric@splitsecondbasketball.com.
