Welcome to New England Select: Building the Future of Basketball

At New England Select, we’re more than just an AAU basketball program—we’re a community committed to shaping the next generation of athletes. Founded by former University of Maryland standout Mychal Parker and basketball development leader Claye Greene, our mission is to provide young players with the tools, guidance, and opportunities they need to excel on and off the court.

Why We Started New England Select

Basketball has the power to change lives. It teaches discipline, teamwork, resilience, and leadership—qualities that extend far beyond the hardwood. As former players and lifelong fans of the game, we saw a need for a program in New England that combines elite training, strong mentorship, and a focus on personal growth. That’s why we created New England Select.
