Developing Stars from Day One
Michigan's premier youth basketball development program for athletes ages 18 months to 12 years. Expert coaching, real fundamentals, lifelong love of the game.
Our Programs
Age-appropriate training that meets every child exactly where they are — and takes them further than they imagined.
Meet the Founder
Diane McCarthy is a two-sport collegiate athlete who competed in both basketball and soccer at Madonna University. Her athletic background gives her a rare, multi-dimensional perspective on athletic development, teamwork, and the mental side of competition.
After her playing career, Diane went on to coach at the varsity high school level in both basketball and soccer, and continued coaching at the collegiate level — building a reputation as a technically gifted, player-first coach who develops athletes from the ground up.
She founded TMRO Stars Basketball Academy to give every child — from the youngest toddler to the elite 12-year-old — access to the same quality coaching she received as a competitive athlete.
What We Stand For
We hold every athlete — from 18 months to 12 years — to a standard of effort, focus, and growth.
Basketball is a team sport. We teach collaboration, communication, and trust from day one.
Mistakes are part of the game. We teach kids to bounce back stronger every time.
The TMRO Stars family is built on inclusion, respect, and a genuine love for the game.
Every drill, every session is designed with long-term athlete development in mind — not just wins.
