My name is AJ Beatty; I am 15 years old and heading into my Sophomore (Grade10) season. I am a highly skilled team player. On offense, I initiate plays and run off ball offensive sets. I am a good all-around shooter, I have a long range and can finish at the hoop in many ways, for example with a floater, a baseline drive or a fast break. On defense, I execute defensive sets, play solid on-ball and off-ball defence, create defensive stops, and get steals. I also have court intelligence, I can scan the floor, see all my options, communicate clearly and loudly, and make quick and decisive decisions. Lastly, I am a very coachable player, I listen to the coaches and always practice improving all aspects of my game.
My longterm goals are to contribute and thrive in a college basketball program, I want to play for a coaching staff that will help me continue to learn and improve my skills and understanding of the game, I believe the experience at college both athletic and academic will resinate with me for years to come.
