The MP Difference

More Playing Time. More Practices.
More Progress. More Fun.

Traditional fall AAU gives a player two team practices during the week, then asks the family to give up most of the weekend to tournaments. We flipped it: train close to home during the week, play real coached games on weekends, and spend the fall getting better instead of driving.

Real Game Reps, Every Session

Not lines and not drills. Every night is built around live play, so players get shots, touches, decisions and meaningful possessions instead of standing in a queue.

Train One Night or Every Night

One night a week, two nights, or All-Access — unlimited nights at any MP gym, in any combination, changed week to week as your schedule moves.

Coaching That Carries Over

Players are grouped by skill and developmental fit rather than age alone, and regrouped as they grow. The same staff sees them week to week, so the coaching builds instead of restarting.

Competitive and Positive

Hard, honest basketball in a gym kids want to come back to. Girls train in girls' groups every night and are welcome in mixed runs whenever they want the challenge.

Pricing · 8-Week Fall Session

Three Ways In.

Same price at every location — what differs is how many nights each gym offers. Weekend Training & Games is an optional +$120 add-on on one- and two-night registrations, and is already included with All-Access.

New for Fall 2026 · All-Access

One Pass. Four Gyms. Every Night.

Your week never looks the same twice. Neither does ours. All-Access lets your player train unlimited nights at any MP gym — Chestnut Hill, Spring House, Center City — and switch whenever the schedule moves. If soccer takes Tuesday, come Wednesday instead. Nothing to reschedule, nothing extra to pay.

Unlimited Nights
Any MP gym, any combination, changeable week to week. SCH Academy, Norwood-Fontbonne, Gwynedd Mercy and The Philadelphia School.
Weekends Included
3 weekends, roughly 6 games on a coached team — no add-on to buy. In-house games for Puppy Dawgs and Dawgs; local games and AAU tournaments for Team MP.

How It Works

Every Player Has a Path.

01

Register

No tryout, no roster, no evaluation. Pick your nights and you're in.

02

Show Up

Coached, competitive sessions built around live play from the first whistle.

03

Get Placed

Grouped by skill and developmental fit, and regrouped as your player grows.

04

Get Better

Eight weeks of real reps, plus weekend games if you add them.

Four Gyms · Three Neighborhoods

Train Close to Home.

All three age groups run at every gym on every night, so one trip covers the whole family. Prices are the same everywhere — what differs is how many nights each location offers.
