ALLOW US TO INTRODUCE OURSELVES

WE ARE VANGUARD NORTH

OUR HISTORY

Vanguard North Basketball was initially founded in September of 2012. Our simple mission was to provide fundamental skill development in youth sports.

The goal of training athletes for premier, elite and competitive level events including collegiate exposure tournaments, has driven VNB to begin developing a strong National Basketball program in the of City Vaughan.

We believe that playing basketball is an excellent avenue to teach moral principles and characteristics such as dedication, teamwork, discipline, self-confidence, and sportsmanship.

OUR MISSION

At Vanguard North we are passionate about fostering the values and lessons learned through sports. We are focused on three distinct pillars with our athletes:

1) Fundamental skills
2) Physical athleticism
3) Enhancement of life skills

These life skills include self-confidence, leadership, hard work, what it means to be a teammate, respect, determination, how to be humble yet be sure of yourself, listening and applying, and having fun through competition. We expect our athletes to learn and grow in this game and also as young men and women.

OUR VISION
