The Basketball Movement has standards and expectations, so it is no surprise that Rob Yanders’ We Are United prep is the same.

Robert Yanders is the founder of The Basketball Movement, the Yanders Law AAU program, and now We Are United prep. Rob conducts himself as a man with a code - one that stands out immediately. He cares about his family, his community, and his players. He expects maximum effort because that is what he provides in return. He loves the game of basketball and is successfully using it to better as many people around him as possible.

We Are United prep allows players who are willing to give maximum effort a chance to elevate their standing within the game of basketball. Not only that, they are given the opportunity to learn, grow, and form a bond with like-minded individuals. That bond is a pillar of the program.

The word “united” has several definitions but certainly adheres to one prevailing theme: made one. To be combined or joined. To be joined together for a common purpose. That is what We Are United is all about.

Initially, players attend an institution such as We Are United prep for personal reasons. They want to raise their stock to continue a more desirable path in their personal basketball journey. However, what may not be immediately apparent, but grows over time, is the realization that this is not a journey they can take alone.

First, Rob Yanders and his staff win their trust - that is why they are here in the first place. Rob and his coaches want to help young players succeed. Players that recognize this are already on their way to understanding how necessary unity is in their hoops career.

Next, as they practice each day, sweat, and grind in the trenches alongside teammates, they begin to see that they are not alone. Every single player at We Are United prep has a desire and the will to improve. In this, they are united. Players that are recognized by Yanders and make it to this level are competitive. They are attending a prep school because they refuse the alternatives of settling on their path. In this, they are united.

These guys want to win. To do this, they must form a cohesive, unselfish team. What was once a group of individuals is now a unit. The common purposes blend into one burning desire under the We Are United banner. The better the team, the better the exposure. The better the exposure, the better odds of completing their individual goals.

This is how success is established. This is how hard work can pay off. This is how WE ARE UNITED.
