Formerly Real Salt Lake (RSL) Academy
Basketball
True European Model Basketball Academy
Like many Prep Academies in the United States, Utah Prep (Formerly RSL Basketball) has a national level high school team that competes with the best programs in the country. Over the last few years we have competed with programs such as OTE, Montverde, Sunrise Christian, AZ Compass, Dream City Christian, and more! Currently, our national team competes in the Grind Session's Power Conference.
Many players on our national team have received impressive accolades such as playing for their national teams, being recruited by High Major Division 1 schools, and being nominated to elite camps.
What makes us unique is how hard we work for all players within our program! Whether you are an under recruited high school player, a recently graduated post grad prospect, or a 7th grader who is passionate about the game, we have a formula that WILL help you reach your goals. All players in our program have access to the same resources, time in the gym, great coaching, high level competition, and an excellent player development environment!
Similar to European sports academies, our aim is to develop every individual who joins our family. Over the last several years, we have helped players go from sitting the bench for their previous school teams to receiving scholarship offers!
