The South Georgia Elite "Rams/Lady Rams", formerly the Georgia Rams/Lady Rams, is a high driven exposure program based out of the Albany, Ga area. We believe in developing student-athletes, not just basketball players. We are a Christ-centered organization dedicated to providing leadership in academics, moral character, and sportsmanship. Our mission is for young ladies and gentlemen to fulfill their potential academically and athletically. As an affiliate of the adidas Grassroots Basketball Family, SGE is constantly working to put each student-athlete in the best possible position to obtain a college scholarship. As Program Director, I am committed to developing the skills of each player to maximize their abilities and get them next level ready.
My philosophy is centered on our student-athletes. Our vision is to build our program with young men that possess the character, talent, and work ethic of champions. As Program Director, my philosophy is to recruit the best and brightest in our region and state, invest the time, energy, and effort to develop talent, and to create opportunities to expose our student-athletes to situations that will impact their lives both on and off the court. SG Elite believe that academics and character as just as important as the student-athlete ability to put the ball in the hoop.
The Academic element of our vision has equal status as Athletics and Character. The South Georgia Elite Youth Basketball program believes that parents need the full support of coaches to emphasize the importance of education as it results to quality of life off the court. Our organization has the policy that academics come first. SAT/ACT prep material will be made available to student-athletes on our 15U-17U teams.
