About Girls High School

About The Program

The Vegas Elite Girls High School Program was started in 2008 and has quickly become the premier club of Southern Nevada for the development of young female athletes. Since 2003 club founder, Brian Sitter, has been developing female athletes in Las Vegas as well as giving guidance throughout the recruiting process, helping them reach their goals of obtaining college scholarships.

The primary purpose of the Vegas Elite Girls High School Program is to provide young women of Las Vegas the tools necessary to become recruitable athletes as well as a platform to showcase their athletic talents. The goal, ultimately, is to give these female athletes an opportunity to gain a college education through a basketball scholarship.

The components provided by Vegas Elite to its members include intense training, proper coaching, competitive experiences, and educational mentoring. Vegas Elite feels that each of these components are imperative to becoming a recruitable athlete, and it is the goal of The Club to provide these components to each of its members, giving them the tools necessary to eventually be recruited by colleges and universities.
