Welcome to the official web site for the San Antonio Ro-Hawks.
Who Are We?
A group of
volunteer
coaches facilitating educational opportunities and athletic
excellence. We promote physical fitness and sportsmanship to
challenge our youth and keep them engaged in a positive environment.
In 1996 we started with twelve 10 and 11 year old young men. The
program has since grown to over 100 young men and women ranging from ages 10 to
17.
We are pleased to
report our players have been engaged and challenged over the
years. They have competed extremely
well at various levels of
competition throughout the state
and nation. We are also proud to state that our graduating
class of 2004, which were the
original
RoHawks, 11 of the 13 young men garnered athletic scholarships.
We were excited to announce the 2007 Season, brought with it the first Lady RoHawks team. The Lady RoHawks participate in the High School Age Group and participated on the Adidas Circuit during their initial season. Since their inception, they have been on the list of Teams to watch from various coaches worldwide. Most of the girls participating have already garnered letters of interest from numerous Division I colleges and universities. This team has and will continue to participate in some of the most prestigious events that girls’ basketball has to offer, such as the Deep South Classic in Raleigh/Durham, NC, the Showtime Nationals in Los Angeles, CA, and the Tournament of Champions in Atlanta, GA. For the 2008 season, we are looking to expand the girls program and increase the number of teams in various age groups.
The base of our program started in the Converse, Live Oak, Universal
City and Schertz communities outside San Antonio. We have
since grown to include young men from Boerne, East Central, New
Braunfels, Smithson Valley, South San Antonio, Southwest San Antonio
and East San Antonio.
The growth we have experienced has
helped us bring together young athletes
from diverse backgrounds and experiences. These opportunities
have aided immeasurably in their personal growth and social
development. Our diversity gives the youths of our program the opportunity to witness,
experience, and more importantly appreciate the different cultures
that shape San Antonio.
Every young man or woman, no matter who they are or where they come from is
one decision (good or bad) away from determining their future.
We remain committed to the physical,
mental, emotional, and social development of the young men and women in our
organization by offering positive alternatives and teaching sound
decision making skills.
