be held at the Rose Bowl on 11th Street just west of Memorial Drive.
Tryouts will be from 5:00-6:00 for girls and 6:00-7:00 for boys on Monday
October 8th. (Tryouts will
take place on our newly installed gym floor – the University of Tulsa is
replacing the floor and goals at the Reynolds Center and the old floor and
goals will now be our home court!)
COST: $200/player includes gym time and uniforms
One Hope Athletes will be made up of
players attending the One Hope Academy, Epic One on One charter school, other
charter schools, private schools who do not offer the particular sport, and
other forms of homeschool students. During the startup phase of One Hope
Athletics any student in 6th-9th grade will be allowed to
participate if they are not playing currently on another school team. Students
will have to maintain academic eligibility by making appropriate progress in
their academics and will be required to maintain the code of conduct required
for One Hope Athletes.

One Hope
Athletics is intentionally college preparatory in our approach
to athletics and academics. We understand that not all of our athletes will
receive college scholarships, but we are committed to making sure that all of
our athletes have the resources, support, and preparation to pursue whatever
God has for them after high school. Preparation will include visits and
exposure to college athletic programs.
One Hope Athletics has partnered with a group that has purchased the Tulsa
Rose Bowl and its renovation will provide first class training facilities. The
University of Tulsa Reynolds Center gym flooring and basketball goals are being
moved from the Reynolds Center to the Rose Bowl. The 35,000 square foot
facility will eventually house a 50 yard turf field as well as the basketball
court and agility and weight training equipment.
