FindaBaller, Inc. launched the company’s first U16 Jersey Shore team this past weekend. The Rumson – Fair Haven Amateur Athletic Union (RFH AAU), sponsored and trained by FindaBaller, Inc., competed in their first tournament, the CJ Hawks Tournament, held May 31st to June 2nd in Holmdel Twp. The RFH AAU team went 1-2 in the CJ Hawks tournament. They are scheduled to play June 7th to June 9th during the Belmar Splash Tournament in Belmar.

FindaBaller, Inc. founded the RFH AAU team by inviting a select group of high school student athletes to continue their performance development by instructing the basic fundamentals through the high intensity of game play. This higher level of play provides student athletes with a valuable opportunity to engage in team building, competitive enthusiasm, and team etiquette. FindaBaller, Inc. will build upon their foundation of developing student athletes through one on one training, athletic development, and character development.

They will continue to develop and train AAU teams with the goal of increasing competitive performance by integrating the development of each student athlete’s basketball skills with the increased demands of playing in a team environment.
