Jr. Pirates Basketball
Youth Basketball Club in Pattonville, MO.
Jr. Pirates Basketball is a non-profit youth basketball feeder program serving Pattonville, Maryland Heights, Bridgeton, St. Ann, and Creve Coeur families in St. Louis County. As the official feeder basketball program for Pattonville High School , we develop players ages 8–14 through structured coaching, competitive teams, and a curriculum built on discipline, teamwork, and community pride.
Whether your child is just starting out or preparing for middle school basketball tryouts, our age-specific teams (8–10, 11–14, and Elite) give every athlete a clear path from their first dribble to varsity basketball. Coach Vince Harmon and our full coaching staff bring real playing and coaching experience to every practice, because we coach the players and mentor the students.
