PLOT TWIST 🔁🔥

Just when you thought the coaching lineup was set... we’ve got a twist for you!

Coach Jordan Calhoun, originally announced as our Midget Head Coach, will be taking his talents down to the Jr. Micro division to coach his son! He brings with him a championship pedigree and energy that will help elevate our youngest ballers. Get ready, Jr. Micro!

But don’t worry, Midget is still in good hands.

Stepping in as Midget Head Coach is a Bailey! Gaston Bailey to be specific. With a CIF title under his belt as WR coach at Valley View High (2016), plus Supreme Conference Super Bowl wins as both an OC (2021, 11u) and HC (2022, 13u), Coach Bailey is bringing elite experience and leadership to the squad.

We are still accepting athletes at both levels. Don’t miss your shot, join the Premier family today!

Dr. Fernandez, you are a pilar! Your commitment to our athletes and the greater community does not go unnoticed. We feel fortunate to have you as a community partner.

We also want to thank the Thousand Palms Desert Rec staff for always welcoming us and providing a clean, well-maintained, and accessible space. Your support and hospitality make all the difference to our program.
