Question:
If I join SOC will I have to participate in many fund raisers?
Fund raising is an important part of our
organizational activities. These activities provide the funds for running the
organization, awards for our players and offset costs involved with
gym rentals. But we recognize that our members have busy lives
and currently participate in a small number of fund raisers.

Question:
Where do you hold practices?
We have held basketball practices in various gyms in

secure a location for our youth to practice and we are very careful to
stay in good terms with the hosting gym. This year we are
holding practice at La Serna HS in Whittier on Saturdays.
