Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Beginner Academy?

It’s our entry-level program for Grades 1–3. Perfect for kids who are brand new to basketball or just starting to learn the basics.

What’s the difference between Beginner Academy and Youth Academy?

The Beginner Academy is for first-time players in Grades 1–2 and beginner 3rd graders. It focuses on building confidence, coordination, and core skills.

The Youth Academy is designed for rising athletes in Grades 3–5 who are ready for more structured training and competitive play. We ask families to assess whether their child is intermediate or advanced, and we help match them accordingly.

Does my child need experience?

No! This program is designed for beginners — even kids who have never played before.

Tuesday & Thursday at 5:00 PM

Saturday at 9:00 AM
