Club Sports Alaska News

Club Sports Alaska is about to finish our first ever Hot Shots Basketball League. With more than 70 participants, it’s been a huge success! But we want to make it even better. To do that, we need your feedback. We want to hear your ideas how we can make this the best developmental basketball league in Alaska. Please email Coach Davis at caleb@clubsportsalaska.com with your thoughts. With your input, we can ensure the kids will continue learning what areas they excel in and how to best use their talent for the benefit of their team. 

Watching these kids play and grow their skills is what keeps us motivated to do an even better job. But we can’t and don’t do it all by ourselves. The coaches and parent volunteers help make this league a success. And a huge thank you to the Spenard Recreation Center for hosting the program in their newly refinished gym.  

Let’s keep the momentum going by making Hot Shots Basketball League a true team effort. Contact Coach Davis and contribute your ideas. This league could not happen without you. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

The summer is flying by and we are close to wrapping up our second season of soccer. It is an absolute pleasure to watch our Club Sports Alaska kids improve their skills and have fun.

But the fun doesn’t have to stop with soccer. Club Sports Alaska is kicking-off flag football for kids 6-15 years old staring on August 26. We play Monday and Wednesday evenings from 6:00pm-7:15pm. This program will be directed by our own highly talented Coach Jared Gill. Coach Gill has an extensive background in sports and at one point in his career coached for the West High Eagles.

If you want to continue to keep your kids active and your schedule easy, sign up for the premier flag football program for the state of Alaska. As always, we keep all of your kids at the SAME site, SAME night and SAME time. Any questions? Call Coach Davis at 907-529-6195.

The leaves on the trees have finally popped! Summer is almost here. That means that Club Sports Alaska is gearing up for our summer soccer kick off on May 28th! If you haven’t registered, you still can!

If you have registered, you might be wondering what you’ll need for the season. CSA provides each athlete with a jersey and soccer socks. In addition to these items, you will need soccer cleats, shin guards, a soccer ball and black shorts. These items might seem simple, but there are actually a few specifics you’ll need to know when picking these out!

When choosing soccer cleats you’ll want to be sure that they fit snuggly. Allow for a pinkie-finger width of space between the toe and the end of the shoe. Make sure they are actually soccer cleats and DO NOT have a toe spike.

There are several different shin guard options available, but we recommend the ankle shin guard style. They provide the most protection during practice and game. Shin guards should cover just below the knee to about 1” above the top of your soccer cleat.

Soccer balls come in different sizes based on age. Check out the chart for details on the right size ball for your player.

Lastly, you will need black shorts based on your athlete’s preference.

If you have any questions please contact Coach Davis at (907) 529-6195 or caleb@clubsportsalaska.com. We are so excited to see your whole family on the field this summer!
