Team Tradition Basketball was founded in 2026 by Dawson Gore — a former college player and assistant coach with a proven track record building programs in Westfield through the Jungle Basketball Club.
"We're not just starting a team. We're building a tradition that players, families, and coaches will be proud of for years to come."
In our inaugural season, we compete on the Under Armour Rise Circuit — developing players who understand the game, respect the process, and carry themselves with character on and off the court.
📍 Based in Westfield, Indiana · Serving Hamilton County & surrounding areas
8 Players · Class of 2027 · UA Rise Circuit
7 Players · Class of 2030 · UA Rise Circuit
"I've been on both sides — as a player grinding for a roster spot, and as a coach helping others reach their potential. I started this program because I know what young players in this area are capable of."
Dawson Gore brings a rare combination of playing experience and coaching expertise to Team Tradition. Having competed at the collegiate level and coached on college staffs, he understands the game at every layer.
A product of Indiana basketball himself, Dawson already has proven roots in the Westfield community through the Jungle Basketball Club — which he founded and continues to run alongside Team Tradition.
