Level 1: Just Starting Classes

Available for Grades K-2

This class is offered as a 4-week session. Players will attend class for an hour, once a week, for 4 consecutive weeks.

Must be at least 5 years old.

In this level, the basketball hoops will be lowered to 8 feet and players will use a smaller basketball. The goal is for them to start developing a joy for basketball while interacting with other children their age in a fun, friendly atmosphere. The activities at this level are more play oriented such as group relay races, shooting games, cone dribbling and group passing games. The main objective here is to work on hand-eye coordination and to have a ball in the children's hands so that they are dribbling, passing, catching or shooting as much as possible.

This level is geared towards younger players with limited experience. We will introduce the basic lines on the court as well as basic basketball rules such as traveling, double dribble, and fouls. The curriculum will focus on stationary ball handling (learning to get comfortable with the ball), dribbling, passing and catching techniques, jump stops and pivots, and basic defensive stance. Most importantly, players will develop proper shooting form to set them up with good habits from a young age. Games such as dribble tag or basketball relays will be played to make the class fun while we build towards playing in a real game situation.
