Is "New Hope Academy" one of those fake basketball schools?

hilarious, with walt webb in charge? it will be the Twins Show.


:lol: :lol: Yes, and I've heard the twins are reclassing, even though he had them playing up a year in the past.

I would AVOID any program with Walt Webb in charge. He is a very good coach and trainer, he promises but doesn't deliver. We've known kids on his Slam City (pay-to-play) "teams" who waited weeks for a schedule, infrequently played in tournaments (except for Walt's own Slam City league), or were placed on teams with 15+ kids, or even worse were placed on teams with the twins who dominated playing time. And, Walt designs the plays for his twins' benefit.

Not sure what happened to his "Team Museum" of superstars. Disbanded I guess.
the twins are already almost 2 years older than the kids in their current grade. No need to reclass them again.

I keep hearing that they have already reclassed twice.

My son (in middle school now) has played for a few of the better teams in DMV. We now know at least 10 of his current and former teammates who are now reclassing including a few tall kids. I can understand a few of them who have a legit chance at a D1 scholarship but the others just want a height advantage. At least 2 of the kids we know will reclass twice!

I initially thought kids only reclassed as a requirement for attending private school to catch up.

No reclassing has become normal part of player development. So much that the game isn’t fair to the players that haven’t reclassed.
