We believe that AAU basketball should  focus on the bigger, long-term picture over the short-term, win-at-all-costs mentality. That's why it's vital that players find the right AAU program or team.

The TN Volcanoes basketball program was started to develop dedicated basketball players on and off the court. It is our belief that athletes need to be treated fair and to be developed at a young age. Each Volcanoes team is offered 3 hours of team practice per week and additional training opportunities. 

Our players are taught and mentored by knowledgeable and dedicated coaches. Our coaches teach effort, sportsmanship, and team camaraderie as core values. It is our belief that it is the process not wins and loses that improves players on and off the court.

Our program is fueled by our passion for basketball and player development. It is our goal to help our players reach their goals in life, make their school teams, learn sportsmanship, understand the value of teamwork, while also making lifelong friendships and having fun.

Do all players make a team?

No. Players interested in playing with the TN Volcanoes must attend try-outs to be considered for a team. We will select a limited number of players per team.
