The objective of the Elite teams is to maximize the skill development of the players while also developing high quality teams that compete well locally, but also with the best teams in North America. DRIVE Elite players are all trained individually as well as instructed on team concepts as well as team building. Players will take part in a variety of team events on and off the court. The aim is to provide the best training and competition possible. The selected players will take part in training programs including individual basketball skill sessions, team practices, exhibition games, tournament play, elite level coaching and strength and conditioning sessions at the DRIVE Basketball Centers in Richmond & Langley.
Fall 2011 competition Schedule (Ages 10-17):
Exhibition games, Round Robin Tournaments & DBL (DRIVE Basketball League) will also be scheduled.

The following teams will be picked for each age group
* Elite Team (10 players) * 2 Alternates
* Premier Team (10 players) *2 Alternates
* Development Team (12 players) * 2 Alternates
(Players will be eligible to move teams throughout the season)
The Summer Schedule for all teams will include 3-4 Days/Week:
* DRIVE Elite Training Centre (Led by Head Coaches Pasha Bains, Chad Clifford, Jordan Mason & Resident Coaches)
* DRIVE Development Training Centre (Led by Pasha Bains, Chad Clifford, Jordan Mason & Resident Coaches)
The purpose of the training center is to further develop our individual & team skills as well as further prepare us for the Spring/Summer Exhibition and Tournament schedule. The Elite Training Center curriculum will be designed to address specific individual and team areas that need improvement. We will be spending considerable time on our off/def pressure & attack, improving our overall strength & quickness & increasing the overall intensity with which we play. Our goal is to have the best training and competition to improve individually and as a group.
Like last season, we will be adjusting our age groups to allow for those born after Sept.1st to play "down" in age groups. This will be a group decision between the coaches, parents and players.
This Elite Season DRIVE will also be having Recreational Teams for each age division. Players that are not selected to the Elite Training roster will train at the Development Training Center. The recreational teams will also get game competition in the form of playing other recreational teams from different organizations.
