In an effort to reach more prospective student-athletes, parents, coaches
and administrators, the NCAA First Team program has launched a web site. The
site will help young athletes interested in playing college basketball prepare
for the recruiting process and stay disciplined during their high school years.
First Team does a great job for prospective basketball student-athletes. In an
age where sixth-graders are being ranked on their athletics ability, it???s
important to encourage and facilitate ways to keep kids focused on their priorities.
First Team is a year-round educational program designed to promote
the value of education and the proper role of athletics in the educational
process. The program supports participants throughout high school and
seeks to provide information that will help prospective student-athletes and
their parents successfully navigate the collegiate recruiting process. It
emphasizes maintaining a balance between academics and athletics.
