Welcome to the Mid-Penn Motion AAU Basketball Club. The MPM was established in 1998 to provide an outlet for talented players to elevate their games during the scholastic off-season, by participating with and against others of similar talent and desire. As a charter member of the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU), the MPM teams consist of basketball players -- aged 10 to 17 from all areas of Central Pennsylvania -- that represent the local communities in the Central Pennsylvania area in regional and national tournaments held throughout the United States.

Participation on a MID-PENN MOTION team does not interfere with PIAA High School Basketball or any winter basketball league. Our teams start official practices in March and the season goes from then until June or July depending on the team.
