What We're About
Indiana Legends is an Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) team committed to improving each player's game on the court, but also helping form these boys into young men off the court. There are many life lessons that can be learned through the game of basketball. Our goal is to show and teach our players these life lessons. Helping impact the lives of young kids is a priority of the program. Also, with the many connections and college contacts we have, we will do everything in our power to help kids make it to the next level if that is their desire.
The program's identity will be our toughness and accountability. Toughness, not as in physical, but as in all the intangibles. True toughness is a skill and it can be developed. All players will be taught this kind of toughness. One must be tough to survive in the world today, which is why it is a skill players will develop when playing for the program. Everyone in the program will be accountable for each other. Accountability is being held to the standard you have accepted as what you have chosen, individually and collectively. Be TOUGH and Be ACCOUNTABLE.
