NOTE: ALL AAU events are not ran by the same people and are not licensed officially under AAU. Always verify the event you are attending is a licensed AAU event or know who is running the event and under what rules. There is a myth that ALL travel basketball is AAU, but it is not. Many independent individuals/groups run unsanctioned AAU events and create their own rules. Some with or without proper insurance or no standardization. In addition, the National AAU Boys Basketball Committee allows AAU Event Operators to modify the rules for Invitational Events ONLY. NOT WORLD or REGIONAL Events. AONP does not modify the rules in order to focus on profits over quality. We ONLY modify Invitational event rules if we feel they benefit the teams attending. AONP can only ensure the events we run or endorse follow our guidance. Our Events will always begin with AONP in the title or you will see our logo. We are currently expanding our brand and will be working with other Event Operators who agree to follow our guidance and model. These events will clearly list the Event Operator and will advertise on our website and we will provide oversight. Our promise is to follow AAU rules which are to provide four quarters, full time outs, check age/grade verification documents and ensure the fairest competition possible. NOTE: We are an independent Event operator and not contracted through AAU. We work with District Leadership to license our events and ensure points are submitted for District and National Rankings.
