2017-2018 WINTER SEASON INFORMATION
Having coached at the grade school level for over 25 years, Joe Niego has created a philosophy and system for developing players. A majority of players who have gone through the Chicago LockDown and Franchise programs have made their high school teams. A number of players have gone on to play college basketball.
