Premo Hoops Recruiting Launching New Website

I am proud to announce that Grassrootsballin will be turning the page to a new chapter in it’s brief history in the near future with the launching of www.premohoopsrecruiting.com.

This has been a long process in getting everything together to be able to launch my new pay-site. The membership cost will be $5.00 per month. The membership will include access to player interviews, scouting videos, event videos, recruiting news, player signings, player evolutions and in-depth event coverage. We are also going to have a 7 day free trail period so people get a chance to see what they will be getting with a membership.

There will also be a ton of free content on the new website including player rankings, photo galleries, basic event coverage and some recruiting news.

I would just like to thank everyone who has supported my site since the beginning and I hope you all will come checkout what the new site has to offer.

Thanks,

C.J. Watson
