This class is NOT for beginners. Players must know the essential fundamentals of basketball (running a basic offense, shooting correctly, etc), and have experience being coached professionally (e.g., Hoops School Skills Class, at least one semester) or playing 3+ years of rec or church league basketball. This is a developmental league. No coach provided per team. Kids run their own offenses; and make adjustments during the game accordingly. Referees will act as “coaches” to ensure proper technique.
Players can sign up in pre-arranged teams of up to 4 players OR as individual players. Individual players assigned to teams according to age/skill level. The first day of class is an assessment day for director and refs to properly allocate players to teams. The goal for each child is to improve in over-all court presence, offensive and defensive techniques and understanding of spacing, court-awareness, and game skills (passing, fakes, shot moves, team concepts on defense and offense).

We are singing the phonics alphabet, engaging in clip card challenges, cracking the code with picture clues, and building brain power with memory match games and amazing mazes! The result is dynamic interplay that enhances a child’s natural learning process and is FUN!
