What we Teach

Our newest program aimed at our youngest players occurs over a five week lesson plan, with classes lasting about 40 minutes. We practice all the skills but with smaller basketballs and lower rings. The idea is to keep the drills short and sharp so that all children remained engaged. It also teaches teamwork and how to deal with small setbacks.
Beginners 5-7 Year Olds

These classes cater for either new or players with prior experience. Our Seven Week program looks teach new players all the basic skills but we separate out our experienced players and provide a different lesson plan for each group. This class also moves into scrimmage quite early in the term, to practice skills under pressure and to improve decision making.
This is also to help our more experience players to transition to organised basketball teams or enhance their current skills if already with a team
