Why BDS?

Basketball Development School

We are one of New England's premier AAU Basketball Clubs for our high-level instruction and competitive tournament schedule for each of our teams. Currently, teams consist of players from New Hampshire and Massachusetts. BDS is proud to provide opportunity for authentic skill development for athletes at all levels of experience in grades 3-12.


All BDS coaches have a well-established background in coaching, while most have played the game at the collegiate and, in some cases, professional level. They are not just AAU coaches, they live and breathe basketball! Countless players that have been coached by BDS coaches have achieved tremendous success at the middle and high school level, as well as in college. Each of our experienced instructor's only coaches one team, so that they can individualize instruction to meet the needs of each athlete, in order for skill development to be significant and continuous. All of our coaches are compensated for their hard work and dedication, so you can be assured that your athlete will get the best instruction possible. Most importantly, our program works tirelessly to make sure that ALL our athletes are as successful off the court, as they will be on it!

We look forward to the opportunity to work with your athlete.

TESTIMONIALS

Our experience with BDS AAU basketball has been very rewarding! We have a daughter on the 5th grade team and a daughter on the 4th grade team, and while they have different coaches who teach in their own personal way, both coaches maintain the same philosophy that player development is top priority. They are both caring coaches who encourage the girls to work hard and challenge themselves. They are talented and experienced coaches who ultimately teach new skills to the girls that will make them better basketball players and prepare them for competition. We firmly believe that both of our daughters have learned a lot and have become better players! They loved the game before BDS, and now they love it even more! Thank you to Coach Purcell and Coach Smith for not only your dedication to the girls, but for your management of the parents' expectations as well. This has been a fun season!

How do we begin to explain our amazing experience our first season with BDS? My daughter had always been a good basketball player but through different coaching experiences had lost her confidence and also developed some bad habits that needed attention. We had given up on the AAU circuit. Then we found BDS! Frank, Leo, and the rest of the coaches are top notch. Coach Frank's style of coaching is just what our daughter was needing, his intensity and passionate approach to the game is what she was missing from other organizations. She thoroughly loves playing with her teammates and appreciates Coach Frank's guidance. We highly recommend BDS basketball to any athlete who wants to take their game to the next level!

Thank you BDS for bringing my daughter's AAU experience back to FUNdamentals, basketball IQ, individual player development, and team based gameplay. The practices are where I notice the real value of the BDS approach. Intense drill based on-the-fly instruction with short coach discussion/instruction breaks are the norm. The previous AAU club my daughter played with for the past 3 years had subtly shifted its focus to the success of the organization and the individual accomplishments of its ranks. Practices last year included standing along the baseline for long stretches with 1 or 2 other teams while one coach would preach of complex offenses, defenses, and plays supported throughout the organization regardless of the individual make-up of each team. BDS is truly refreshing and we're thankful we found them!

We have a daughter who has been participating in the BDS skill camps and, most recently, played for the AAU 4th grade team. This was a very rewarding AAU season. Her coaches, Coach Smith and Coach Carlile, were dedicated and experienced, and taught the players new skills, reinforced basics, appreciated what each child brought to the table and challenged them all to work hard and as a team. My daughter is definitely a stronger player after this season, and loving basketball more and more. What is most notable about BDS is the overall sense of family. Right from the start, upon walking into a camp, a tryout, or a practice, the feeling of family, support, and commitment to help and truly want each child to succeed and grow as an individual and as a team is prevalent. The encouragement the players received from all the BDS coaches and staff, not just their own coaches, was refreshing. Through out the season, everywhere you turned, all the teams were watching and cheering on each other from all age groups, tracking each other's progress on the tournament apps, Instagram, Twitter, etc. Thank you BDS for welcoming us this year, for your dedication, and for giving us a positive season we can look back on!
