As in all FUNdamental Sports activities, basketball clinics will teach the fundamental movements and skills of basketball

Summer Basketball Clinics

Little Dribblers (pre-K to rising 1st grade) 8 am - 8:45 am ($75)
Boys & Girls (rising 2nd to 9th grade) 9 am - 12 pm ($125)

The FUNdamental Sports Basketball clinic will teach the fundamental movements and skills of basketball so children learn the RIGHT way, the FIRST time. Defensive and offensive footwork, shooting and passing mechanics, triple threat, and balance will be taught daily. Players will be separated by age and skill level so everyone develops and maintains confidence. The last hour of the clinic will feature 1-on-1, 3-on-3, or 5-on-5 competitions. Games will be closely monitored by coaches, ensuring the skills learned are appropriately applied in a competitive game.

Summer Basketball League

The FUNdamental Sports Basketball Summer League will include one practice and one game per week. Practices will be similar to our clinic, where the fundamental movements and skills of basketball will be taught. Games will be two 20-minute halves in which players are matched with similar skill level, ensuring every player develops during the 6-week session. We will strive to keep teams evenly matched while attempting to place players with their schoolmates. Depending on the numbers, we will have separate girls and boys leagues. With parents help, we will ensure this is a great atmosphere where the kids will have FUN learning the game of basketball and how to compete. Little Dribblers will practice one day per week (Tuesday 5:30 pm - 6:15 pm) in a clinic style format, progressively introducing them to games in the latter part of the season.

Testimonial

Brian, I wanted to take a quick minute to express my gratitude for your work with my daughters. I truly appreciated your ability to communicate effectively and with kindness. Your emphasis on teamwork and positive life skills is the perfect background for learning any sport. As I mentioned my oldest daughter struggles with anxiety, and the fact that you created a safe and fun environment allowed her to participate in ways that she has never done before. I was incredibly impressed with the entire program and hope to see you again for basketball.
