| ALL ABOUT THE BASKETBALL EDGE | |
The Basketball Edge is dedicated and committed to excellence in the sport of basketball. Our services focus on providing training and development opportunities to athletes and coaches during the off-season. We deliver a quality program by placing a high priority on teaching basic fundamental skills, drills and performance enhancement strategies needed for athletes and coaches to progress to a higher level of competition. We refer to this as The Basketball Edge. |
| HISTORY | WHERE WE ARE NOW |
Once upon a time in Strathcona County there was a man who wanted to share his passion and love for the sport of basketball with young people. He wanted them to have opportunities to have fun and learn to play basketball and develop skills to progress to a higher level of competition. This man is: André Lussier.

In 2006, The Basketball Edge continues to offer summer camps for youth in Sherwood park and St Albert as well as high school camps for players in the Edmonton area. The summer and fall programs in Sherwood Park continue to fill up several weeks prior to registration deadlines. We employ several coaches every year, many of whom have worked with the Edge for several years and look forward to returning year after year.

| PHILOSOPHY | THE FUTURE |
Our Philosophy of Success has been to bring together a group of highly experienced coaches that have a love for the sport and enjoy working together. This enthusiasm is contagious and is the foundation for teaching basic fundamental skills, drills and performance enhancement strategies needed for athletes and coaches to progress to a higher level of competition. We refer to this as The Basketball Edge. |
In the next year, The Basketball Edge will add a program for U10 kids to the summer camp lineup and will continue with the current offerings in Sherwood Park and St Albert. Something new for the fall of 2007 is a coaching clinic for the Greater Edmonton area.
