Foundation Session
Discover the world of basketball with our specially crafted sessions for junior athletes. Whether your child is stepping onto the court for the first time or looking to enhance their skills, our programme offers a dynamic blend of fundamental training and enjoyable gameplay. Foundation sessions run for 8 consecutive weeks, from week 2 to 9 of each term.
Prep to Grade 2 - Beginner Session:
Tailored for Prep to Grade 2, this session focuses on the basics of basketball and the refinement of motor skills. Perfect for beginners or those with minimal experience, our coaches emphasise essential skills such as ball handling, passing, catching, and shooting. Join us for a fun and foundational introduction to the exciting world of basketball.
Grade 2 to Grade 4 Sessions:
Building on the fundamentals, our Grade 2 - 4 sessions take skills to the next level as athletes grow older. We concentrate on refining techniques for shooting, passing, and ball handling, introducing individual defensive and offensive skills, including footwork. Experience an added layer of game play concepts in this engaging and developmental session.
Grade 5 To Grade 7 Sessions - Intermediate to Advanced Skills:
Our Grade 5 - 7 sessions maintain a core focus on fundamentals while incorporating more advanced offensive and defensive concepts. Over the 8 weeks of the term, athletes will develop their skills, preparing them for a higher level of play. All concepts introduced in these sessions are integral to our basketball academy, presented clearly with practical implementation during our sessions.
Join us on the court, where junior athletes will not only learn the essentials of basketball but also experience a great deal of fun. Each session is guided by a minimum of one adult coach, complemented by our elite Year 10 athletes, ensuring a supportive environment with a desired coach-to-player ratio of 1:15.
