Basketball

Boys and girls of all skill levels are welcome in our basketball program. Beginner level basketball players learn the fundamentals to play and enjoy basketball. Intermediate and advanced players improve their skills and learn winning basketball court strategy. All students play! Emphasis is on skill attainment, making friends and having fun. Basketball tournaments are held at the end of each session - all students are invited! Youth ages 7 and above are invited to enroll in this program.

Basketball classes meet once a week.
Basketballs, jerseys, and apparel are available for purchase at class and online.

Each session, basketball students improve existing skills and learn new ones.

Baketball students advance from Stars to Super Stars to All Stars to Elite All Stars. Students receive a plaque and certificate for their achievements.

Perfect attendance is rewarded at the end of each session. Basketball students missing a lesson may take a make-up lesson and still receive the perfect attendance award! To make up a missed lesson, students take 2 classes back-to-back prior to the end of the session. Students may take the class prior to their normal class time, or take the class following their normal class time. Please see the coach for more information.
