Joining

How do I ask about joining a GBC Huskies team?

Start by contacting the program with the parent or guardian name, player name, grade, age, basketball experience, and what you are looking for. The coach can confirm current team needs, training options, and next steps.

Training

What should players expect from training?

Training is built around fundamentals, game-speed skill work, strength and conditioning habits, attention to detail, teamwork, work ethic, and sportsmanship. Players should arrive ready to listen, compete, and improve.

Payments

How do parents make payments?

Payments can be made by Zelle to 657-253-0078 or by cash after the amount is confirmed with the coach. Use a clear memo with the player name and what the payment is for. The website does not collect bank info, card info, tax info, SSNs, Zelle passwords, or payment account details.

Fundraising

Where does sponsor or donation money go?

Support helps with team travel, tournament opportunities, uniforms, equipment, training support, and program development. Families should contact the coach for current fundraising priorities before making a specific-purpose contribution.

Fundraising

Can families donate cash?

Cash may be accepted through Coach Jay after the amount and purpose are confirmed. Do not leave cash with someone unless the coach has confirmed the collection process.

Fundraising

Is Zelle accepted for fundraising support?

Yes. Zelle can be sent to 657-253-0078 after confirming the payment purpose. Use a clear memo such as player name - what the payment is for.

Fundraising

Can a business sponsor GBC Huskies?

Businesses can ask about sponsorship opportunities, website recognition, social media recognition, and custom sponsor support. Sponsorship details should be confirmed directly with the coach before payment or logo placement.

Team Store

Can we order merch or uniforms right now?

Ordering is paused while official Stripe/order links are being set up. Please do not send merch or uniform payments until the coach confirms the store is open. The team store is preview-only for now. Once ordering opens, please allow up to 3 weeks for team store items to arrive. Products, prices, sizes, pickup, delivery, and timing should be confirmed before payment.

Reviews

How are parent and player reviews handled?

Families can submit testimonials, but reviews are not auto-published. Only approved public review text is added to the website, and families can choose full name, first name only, or anonymous display. Parent email and player personal information should not be shown publicly.

Privacy

How does GBC handle player photos and private information?

The public website should only use approved photos and safe public program information. Do not submit sensitive private details through public forms. If a family has a concern about a player photo or detail, contact the coach so it can be reviewed.
