We have tryouts once a year for around a week starting at the end of the high school basketball season. We will post exact dates and times for tryouts around the end of February. Follow us on Twitter and Facebook to be alerted to these details. Players are chosen based on talent, coachability, commitment, and character. Teams are compromised of 10-15 players. As with any team sport, sometimes players choose to leave for a variety of reasons. So on rare occasions, we may add a player midseason.

Practices are about twice per week and every now and then on weekends.  The week of a tournament, we may add one more practice.  The number of guys per team fluctuates from year to year and the number of tournaments will be determined near the beginning of the season.

Charleston Raptors Basketball believes in the local talent in Charleston and the surrounding areas. For that reason we put together teams comprised of that talent. Our teams are not super teams of recruited players whose only goal is to win as many tournaments as possible. Our goal is to develop players to reach the next level. We practice approximately three times a week and teach players to raise their basketball IQ and skills to be a more complete athlete.
