FAQs:
Can my child wait after school?
Yes, if your child is a 3rd, 4th or 5th grader, they will wait in the wood gym until we begin. A coach will be there to supervise. Please make sure your child's teacher is aware that they are staying after school for basketball.
If your child is a 6th, 7th, or 8th grader, they will report to the LES wood gym at the start of each training session.
Are there different sessions for different age groups?
We split players up each night based on age and skill level to allow for maximum development. Each night players will be grouped with players of a similar skill set to train with and against. Coaches will modify drills to make them age and skill appropriate.
Do you pay for sessions individually?
We sell punch cards for $40 that are good for 10 sessions or you can pay $5 per session you attend. These cards can be shared and do carryover to the following spring or fall if all the sessions have not been used. We've found this allows for players to continue in a spring sport while still taking advantage of opportunities for basketball training when their schedule allows.
How long are the sessions? Are parents allowed to stay and watch?
Each training session will be an hour in length. You are welcome to stay and watch or you can drop your child off and pick them back up in an hour.
What do they work on?
Our focus will be almost entirely on offensive skill development. A strong focus will be placed on ball handling and footwork, as we feel these are two of the most fundamental skills in basketball. Each session will consist of a warmup, ball handling stations, skill specific breakdown drills, and 1 on 1 play.
