Ground Zero Playaz

Introducing Prolific’s new competitive basketball club program, Ground Zero Playaz (Playaz)! The Playaz is tailored for hardworking, gritty athletes that are looking to play competitively, develop, commit, and build from the ground up!

Zero Excuses. Earn Everything. Level Up!

HOME OF PROLIFIC SPORTS HOUSE! Ground Zero Playaz is our competitive basketball club built for boys and girls athletes who are serious about their development and committed to reaching the next level. Our program is designed around skills training, small sided competitive games, mindset building, leagues, tournaments, and strength training.

We will travel events, play against good competition in great basketball environments, and demand accountability on and off the court. This is not a casual program — it requires big commitment, discipline, mental toughness, community giveback, family oriented, and a strong work ethic.

At Ground Zero Playaz, we are FAMILY! We push each other, support each other, and hold each other to a higher standard. Our focus is long-term development, exposure, and preparing players for the next level of basketball and life.

If you’re driven, coachable, and ready to earn everything — Ground Zero is where it starts.
