K-1 Basketball Development Program

  • Basketball Development Program Overview

    The K–1st Grade Basketball Development Program is designed for young athletes who are new to the court or still building their confidence with the fundamentals of basketball.

    Instead of being limited to an 8-week session, athletes can now join at any time and continue developing month after month. Each session provides a fun, welcoming environment where players can learn the basics, build confidence, and develop a love for the game.

    Sessions focus on age-appropriate fundamentals, including dribbling, passing, shooting, footwork, coordination, and learning how to play the game. Coaches will help athletes develop at their own pace while creating a positive first experience with basketball.
