Vic Howlers was created to provide players of all skill levels the opportunity to grow—not only by developing their individual abilities but also by learning to work together as a team. We believe true success comes from teamwork, a positive attitude, and consistent improvement—not just winning games.
If your primary goal is to join a highly competitive, win-at-all-costs program, this may not be the right fit. Our focus is on building a safe, fair, and supportive community where kids can develop their skills and deepen their love for the game of basketball.

Her coaching style blends teamwork, skill-building, and—above all—fun, creating a positive and supportive environment for every player on the court.
