Select 40 Program Preview: Troop West

Troop West is a relatively new basketball program that has quickly made a name for itself. They were founded in 2018 and are based out of California. Troop West was a part of the 3SSB Circuit from 2019 to 2022. The program demands absolute commitment from its players, and there is a strong emphasis on hustle, discipline, and unselfishness. With a no-nonsense approach to the game, Troop West is known for playing harder than any other team out there, and this mentality has helped to develop some of the top young players in the country.
