1/13/2010: Orinda Magic has named a new head coach(Steve Pezzola) for the Black Team. The Black Team is Orinda Magic's Elite high school team and will travel Nationally to tournaments in Oregon and possibly Tennessee. Steve Pezzola has coached at the high school level for over 5 years and just began as the Salesian Varsity Girls Basketball Coach. As the coach of the Black team, Steve’s goal is to continue the program that his good friend Darrell Hirashima Sr founded which placed numerous girls in position to play basketball at Division I, II, and III schools.  He is looking for highly competitive girls who: (1) love the game of basketball, (2) respect the game and its players, coaches and officials, (3) are willing to work to become better players while having fun in the Spring and the Summer; and (4) desire to continue playing basketball past their high school years.

History of Magic Teams

  The doors of the Orinda Magic program have always remained open to anyone with a strong determination and dedication to improve their game, as well as a commitment to helping their team to be the best it can be.  Since the inception of the first Orinda Magic team, the program has consistently, year-in and year-out produced standout high school varsity players, not to mention the many Magic players who have been lucky enough to take their game to the college level.  

  For more information on Magic teams and the history of the Magic program, visit the mission page on our website by clicking the tab at the top of the page or just hit the link here.  MISSION

  The Orinda Magic program is dedicated to maximizing development and maximizing exposure for each of our players.  Developing the skills of the game is overseen by coaches who themselves have dedicated a lifetime to learning the art of basketball.  Exposure is achieved not only in the sense of being exposed to the best available competition and positive challenging situations, but also exposure of our players to a wide range of college coaches and scouts at national "viewing events" during the summer.
