The League - Session 1 (FALL)
League Description
THE LEAGUE is for K - 8th graders looking to continue to develop their basketball skills in a fun, team-oriented environment with an emphasis on game play. Participants will work in small groups on shooting, dribbling, ball handling, defense, teamwork, sportsmanship and more on Sundays from September to December, 2011. For the first three weeks (Skills Clinic), our coaches will prepare your child for team play; the following seven weeks (Game & Playoff Action) will be competitive game play; and the final week will be an All-Star event. The class times will be determined by your child’s age group. Prior to the first week of the program, locations will be finalized and a detailed schedule will be sent to parents.
League Coaches
Talented coaches from both Joy of the Game and Hi-Five Sports Club will be running this program.
