Ventura Heat

Welcome to the Ventura Heat. This page will give you all the info about what the Ventura Heat is about as well as what we need from you and when we need it. So please read away and if you have any questions afterwards please e-mail Coach Gabe or Coach Richard.

Overview

The Ventura Heat is a year round Club Basketball team put together with Three goals in mind. 1) To make our kids better basketball players. 2) Show them how to be winners. 3) How to become a good person in life. We are doing this by teaching the kids the right way to play the game, and playing much higher level compaction then they would get playing the VYBA level or other Rec Leagues.

Please note the team is NOT just made up of boys & girls from Ventura. You can be from any city and play for the Heat.

Where do we Play?

 

The Heat will play in 24 to 36 tournaments a year (2 to 3 per month). We will play most of the tournaments local meaning within 45 minutes but will for some tournaments go as far North as San Lois Obispo and as far South as San Diego.

Practices are held in gyms in the City of Ventura. Most practice are hold at night from anywhere from 5:30pm to 9:00pm. Practice are from 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours long.

Cost

 

One of the questions that every parent wants to know if your son makes the team is what are the cost!!! So I am here to answer it for you.

1. There is a $150 fee to join the Ventura Heat. This is to pay for the players Shooting Shirt, Bag, & Practice Jersey. (The uniforms are owned by the Heat so players must return them if they leave the team.)
2. Every month on the 1st there is a $100 fee. This fee is to pay for leagues, tournaments cost.
3. We will also be doing fundraisers to raise money as well.
4. Any other cost to you would be for travel. We do as listed above travel to places that might need an over night stay. The team most times will get a Heat Team rate and stay at the same Hotel.
   

Time

 

The Second question that every parent wants to know is what are we looking at is far as time needed!!! So I am here again to answer is for you.

1. We have practices 2 to 3 times a week.
2. Practice days are subject to change do to what days gyms are available. Practices run in most cases 1 1/2 to 2 hours long.
3. Tournaments are mostly 2 days running on Saturday & Sunday.
