About a week ago, the Alaska STARS Basketball company became active, being led by William Lidster, Jesse Smith, Sam Freelove and Trey Davis. This is a distinct organization from Stars Youth Development Program - a corporation that was jointly owned by William Lidster, Trevor Mason and Arnold Dade. Mr. Lidster resigned from that organization and decided to take basketball down a direction that included a stronger focus on academic and civic development of student citizens of Alaska.
What will become of Stars Youth Development Program and how Trevor Mason and Arnold Dade will fill the niche held by Mr. Lidster is unknown.
What is clear is that Alaska STARS Basketball has a new invigorated energy as it realigns its focus with coaching staff fully dedicated to fulfilling a single vision - to make Alaska STARS Basketball the premier youth basketball program in Alaska.
I look forward to doing what we do well - training basketball - and doing it even better. I look forward to our journey through new ventures of academia and civic/social responsibility. With a shared vision by all participants, we can achieve a first-class program.
Look for changes in the website that reflects some of these new ventures. They will be coming steadily throughout the next weeks.
