21, Only 78 More To Go. Atlanta Select Teams earned 4 more trophies last weekend toward the goal of 99 trophies for the season. The count now is 21.
For the second week in a row and in every tournament in which they have participated, the Mighty Second Grade Boys Team RED, playing up in the Third Grade Group, earned the "Runner Up" trophy. These student athletes are tasked to earned three trophies for the season. They are 2/3 toward their goal. congratulations to Coach James, his staff, his parents and of course to his very Confident, Aggressive, Relentless and SYNERGY driven basketball team.
Also, at the 2/3 mark of their goal is
the Mighty Fifth Grade Boys Team SILVER as they won their second trophy in a row by earning the championship trophy at the "King of the South" tournament last weekend. This team earned 6 trophies last season and it appears that they will top that number this year. Congratulations to Coach Christopher and Coach Baskerville for assembling a dynamic group of young men.
Starting off, as they have done in the past, were the Mighty Tenth Grade Lady Selects RED,
under the leadership of Coach McCrae and Coach McCadney, by winning their first tournament of the season. The ladies have already qualified for the AAU Nationals by winning the championship at the AAU Super Regional in Augusta, GA last weekend. I am confident that they will exceed their goal of 3 trophies for the season by 200 or 300 percent.
Coach Christopher
has been coaching two teams, the Fifth Grade Boys SILVER and the Eleventh Grade Boys WHITE. Both teams earned trophies last weekend, the Fifth Grade SILVER mentioned above and the Eleventh Grade Boys WHITE below. The core of his Eleventh Grade Boys Team has been with him for 5 years and they plan to make this year their best year ever. Coach Christopher is assisted by Coach Bolten, who has been with him for several years, and Coach OJ Warfield, a former Atlanta Select player who has been an Atlanta Select coach for two years. Go Select.
Atlanta Select "Salute" the student athletes, parents and coaches who loyally support the programs of our organization.
Thanks.

Justin Allen -- Atlanta Select Salutes You. Atlanta Select "Salutes" Justin Allen, a former member of Atlanta Select RED Team five years ago.
Justin is now a student athlete (Junior) at Lincoln Memorial University in Harrogate, TN.
While a Select he played a key role by leading his team as Point/Shooting Guard as the team traveled the nation. He can be proud that he, along with his teammates, help placed Atlanta Select on the map.
While a Select, Justin willingly and actively participated in the "Life Skills" program. Pictured below Justin, along with current Atlanta Select Coach O.J. Warfield, giving an impromptu speech as part of Atlanta Select's toastmasters program.
At Miller Grove High School, again, he helped his team to be recognized as a championship caliber as his team made it to the "Final Four" in the State Championship.
Now Justin can be proud of his college team as they finished the season number one in the NCAA Div II South Atlantic Conference, SAC. The team was 23-3 and they won their conference championship. They lost to Anderson University in the play-offs but the team celebrated as they had won. Justin was part of a team that, the first time in the history of the school, made it to the NCAA tournament.
Justin is the son of proud parents, Ken and Sara Davis and the Atlanta Select family. He is majoring in "Broadcasting" and is schedule to graduate on time.
His mother stated, "I am very excited about Justin graduating on time caused basketball only just pays for education but that piece of paper is where it's at". Justin can be justifiably proud of his accomplishments as a student athlete who still believes "Education" comes first.
Go Select, Go Miller Grove, Go LMU, Go Justin (#3).

Atlanta Select Wears - Point 3 Point 3 is evolution in basketball gear. Born from a need and refined through experience, the goal of Point 3 is to provide the basketball player with innovation that will allow them to be their best on the court.
Atlanta Select was selected by Point 3 to introduce its innovative basketball uniform to the nation. We are the first team in the nation to be outfitted with this innovative gear.
The Mighty Ninth Grade Boys RED Team, Head Coach Tony Burton, is the first Atlanta Select team and the first team in the nation to style this uniform.
Unique aspects of the uniform are: built in busted sweatbands on the shoulders for the player to wipe facial sweat and sweat absorbent bands on the shorts to keep the hands dry.
The Point 3 patent is DRYV Moisture Control.
Other Atlanta Select teams will be sporting the Point 3 SAK. Gym bags are too big, Book bags don't fit your rock and your pockets can't hold everything. Enter the SAK. With an opening designed to fit around the basketball it provides just enough room to get all the extra in there., but not too much space to slow the player down from getting to the court and calling next. It has an elastic beverage holder, a pocket for the IPOB and keys and a reinforced bottom for extra durability.
The Mighty Tenth Grade Boys SILVER and the Mighty Tenth Grade Boys PRIME will be sporting the new Point 3 SAKS this weekend at the YBOA Gwinnett Roundball Classic.
Atlanta Select beleives that taking it to the next level is more than in one area. We believe we must be top in Education, and Education always comes first. We believe we must be top in Life Skills training. We want to outline the paths to success. We believe we must be top in Sports promotion, because it is all about EXPOSURE. Plus we must Look Good. Go Select.
