This program promises to deliver a fun introduction to the game of basketball. A special age appropriate sized basketball and lowered hoops will help to ensure every child’s success. From shooting, dribbling, and passing skills, confidence building is the key ingredient in the program. Each team of 8 - 10 players is lead by an adult volunteer leader and an assistant leader. Teams are assigned by the school a child is attending; schools may have to be split or combined due to the number of players registered.
Girls and boys are on separate teams.
