About the Program

We develop leaders on and off the floor. We compete with discipline. We carry ourselves like royalty — not in ego, but in standards.

What We Do

Westside Kings & Queens is an AAU basketball program based in West Valley, Utah. We run boys and girls teams across 15U, 16U, and 17U divisions — competing in Power 32, regional tournaments, and local Utah leagues.

Structured Training

Two 2-hour team practices per week focused on fundamentals, strategy, and game preparation. Every practice has structure. Every drill has intention. Every rep builds habits that translate to games.

Competitive Play

AAU tournament competition against top programs in Utah and the region. Real games, real pressure, real growth. Your athlete won't just play more — they'll get better.

Next-Level Prep

High school varsity and beyond. We build the habits, discipline, and confidence that translate to the next stage. 15U, 16U, and 17U divisions for boys and girls.

Program Philosophy

Accountability

Players show up on time, put in the work, and hold each other to the standard. No excuses, no shortcuts. The discipline we build on the court carries into the classroom and into life.

Toughness

We don't back down from competition. We seek it out. Our athletes learn to respond to adversity, play through pressure, and compete with composure when it matters most.

Confidence

Every player deserves to believe in their game. We develop confidence through preparation — when you've put in the reps, you trust yourself on the floor.

Culture

This isn't just a team — it's a standard. Players carry themselves like royalty. They respect the game, respect their opponents, and represent the Westside with pride.

"Built on the Westside. Built to win the right way."

Divisions

Boys and girls teams competing at the travel and local level.

15U

Freshmen building their foundation. Emphasis on skill development, basketball IQ, and getting comfortable in competitive game settings.

16U

Sophomores sharpening their game. Higher intensity, more complex schemes, and exposure to top-tier AAU competition across the region.

17U

Juniors and seniors preparing for the next level. Varsity-ready athletes competing against the best in Utah and beyond. Circuit play in front of college scouts and recruiters.

Recruitment & Exposure

We don't just develop players — we create opportunities for them to get noticed.

Circuit Play

Our teams compete on circuits where college scouts and evaluators are actively watching. Power 32, regional showcases, and exposure tournaments put our athletes in front of the people who matter.

Player Profiles

Through our partnership with Coach West Recruiting, every player gets a professional profile — stats, film, and direct connections to college programs looking for talent.

College Readiness

We prepare athletes for the recruiting process — not just the basketball, but understanding what college coaches look for in character, academics, and competitive mindset.

Real Pathways

This isn't rec ball. Every player who wants to compete at the next level gets a real shot. We put in the work to connect talent with opportunity.
