Basketball Parents—This Is Your Playbook.
Youth sports in the U.S. are a $30+ billion industry—with $19 billion spent on travel-related tournaments and events alone. For families in the basketball world, it’s no longer just about the game—it’s a business. And most parents are left trying to figure it out on their own.

The Parent’s Section: Outside the Locker Room is the first guide written by a basketball parent, for basketball parents, offering a real-life, data-informed roadmap through AAU, prep school, recruiting, and the evolving NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) space.

Based on the author’s seven-year journey with her son—from local gyms to D1 scholarships and a professional contract—this book includes:

• Expert insight from coaches, recruiters, and players

• Step-by-step strategies for scholarships, team selection, and recruiting timelines

• Real stories from families navigating the system

• Mistakes to avoid in AAU, prep school, and NIL negotiations

• Guidance to help your athlete get seen—and signed

“Over the years, I’ve seen too many parents—myself included—lost in a system that doesn’t explain itself. This is the guide I wish we had.”

Used in coursework at American Intercontinental University, this book is a trusted resource for families, educators, and youth sports professionals.

If you’re standing in the Parent’s Section… this is your blueprint.
