"My son joined Level Up Hoops as a 5th grader with only one season of basketball experience and has grown so much in this program. Basketball has quickly become his favorite sport and he has improved so much in just his first tournament season!

We cannot say enough great things about Coach Joe! He goes above and beyond for these boys and is such a great role model for them. He works with them not only on their skills but also their mental toughness in an often high- emotion sport."

- Greene Family, 6th grader, 3 season with Level Up

"We highly recommend Level Up! After one season with this AAU group, the transformation of our son’s skill-level and confidence in his basketball ability was incredible. The coaches are absolutely fantastic.

They go above and beyond, making sure to tailor their strategies to each player, challenging them to push their limits while always being encouraging.

If you are looking for a fantastic AAU group to advance your child’s basketball skills, you can’t go wrong with Level up."

- Chris and Angela Wilbur

"Level-Up has its priorities straight. The coaches focus on developing player skills while stressing the importance of team basketball.

Over the past two years since joining Level-Up, my son’s individual skills have vastly improved along with his appreciation of playing the game the right way.

Now, he takes more joy in making that perfect pass that leads to a teammate’s lay-up, than draining an outside jumper.

Coach Jazz and Coach Crawford instill that spirit of teamwork and togetherness."

"Joining Level Up has been an incredible journey for my daughter Grace. From the very first practice, it was evident that this team is more than just about basketball; it’s about fostering a supportive community where kids thrive both on and off the court.

The coaching staff’s dedication and expertise are truly commendable. They not only teach basketball skills but also instill important values like teamwork, perseverance, and sportsmanship. Our daughter has grown not only as an athlete but also as a person, thanks to the positive influence of the coaches and teammates.

The sense of camaraderie among the players is remarkable. They push each other to excel while always lifting each other up. Whether it’s celebrating victories or overcoming challenges, the bond they share is truly special.

We’re grateful for the opportunities that Level Up has provided. It has been great to see friendships born on this team throughout the south shore that will last with them through high school and beyond."

"I can’t thank Coach Jazz and Coach Crawford enough for all their efforts and passion that they showed for my daughter.

Not only did they teach her so many basketball fundamentals, but they taught her important life lessons. When our daughter started AAU, she was nervous and unsure of herself

She was always a good player but what Coach Jazz taught her was confidence and how to attack the basket with confidence. Her basketball game went to the next level after the season.

I can’t thank you enough for that! Level Up was such a wonderful experience for her that we now have three kids in the program!"

- Walsh Family

"My daughter was at a stall as far as skills at her last organization. We were impressed from the first tryouts and continue to be impressed by the passion and commitment of her coach Leshon, he loves the girls like they were his own. He is constantly inspiring, encouraging, and teaching. This goes for the entire level up organization. They go out of their way for our children. We are more than a team, we are a family. My daughter has grown in leaps and bounds and can’t wait to see what else this organization has in store for her!! We love y’all and this organization”

"We chose Level Up due to the family experience and high level of coaching! Coach Jazz is amazing with the kids, she finds their strengths and weaknesses to make your child the best player they can be! Jazz also holds each player accountable. She truly puts all her time into these boys! When I say the family experience I mean it! She goes above and beyond, for not only these boys, but for their siblings also. She’s the definition of a dedicated coach who is always looking for a way to give back to the community. His game has elevated and his confidence is growing, we absolutely love watching him become the dog he can be on the court!! Coach Jazz truly wants the best for every kid in the program. Who wouldn’t want to come back to a program like that! It’s not everyday that you get a great coach and great group of kids who truly enjoy each other! It’s more than just basketball it’s about building teams who are family"

"Level-Up is a force to compete with. The program is focused on developing great players who play together and who play the game the right way.

My son has grown so much over the last two years playing with Level-Up. Through their shooting camps, his jump shot has improved tremendously and his shooting form is much better.

In addition, under the Level-Up philosophy of positive reinforcement, encouragement and bringing passion for the game, my son’s confidence is higher, his composure on the court is excellent and he has matured as a player.

Joining Level-Up was an awesome decision for us!"
