Programs

This instructional basketball program gives players their first team experience as we focus on working together while improving each player's individual skills. We create 4-8 teams of 10 players. Each team has a rotating schedule and plays a one-hour game within the four-hour designated time. Each player receives a team jersey, schedule, and participation award. Our goal is to get these players off to the right start!
