Why Ares Showcase Is Different
This is not a mass tryout or a program built around stacking extra teams.
We are building a serious showcase roster for players who want to:
- Develop under experienced coaching
- Compete against strong talent
- Gain exposure in front of college coaches
- Be part of a team with real purpose and structure
With Ares, players get the opportunity to train with Dan Mooney, a former professional player and college coach with 40+ years of experience, while competing in events designed to help athletes be seen.
What You Get
High-Level Coaching
Train with Dan Mooney and staff who understand player development, team systems, and what it takes to compete at the next level.
Real Exposure Opportunities

Serious Competition

Select Team Environment
