"Basketball doesn't build character, it reveals it"- James Naismith
MBE- One Way is an exciting expansion of our 'Moore Brothers Elite' AAU program. MBE - One Way will be led by our partner Tyrone Lewis and is based out of Levittown, Pa & surrounding areas. We will be putting together 6 competitive AAU age groups: 6th - 11th Grade both Boy's & Girl's teams. We are looking for young athletes that have a passion for the game and want to compete at a high level with others for a common goal. We pride ourselves on hard-work and dedication and we hope to instill these qualities in every player.
Our Mission: Help committed players build confidence and skills to perform at their highest level by teaching them the fundamentals of the sport.
Our Coaching Philosophy: To have players understand that they are part of something more important and bigger than their individual considerations, and become unselfish in their thinking, ultimately achieving and obtaining more satisfaction from the overall experience of competitive basketball.
​
Our Training Philosophy: We believe that by combining high-intensity training with high-energy coaching our players see results more quickly and advance to higher levels. The coaching staff have successful tract records at the college and professional levels.
