Our "Kids First Basketball Program"
is our introductory basketball program designed specifically for children aged between 5 and 10 years of age just beginning in the sport.
It’s designed to introduce kids of this age to the sport in a non-pressured environment with lots of fun and learning.
"Kids First Basketball" features the following
Children progress at their own rate.
(1) In the beginner’s stage we concentrate on basic skills and giving the kids
plenty of fun.
(2) In the advanced Stage when the kids have gained basic skills we introduce
more challenging game skills to prepare them for competition. Drills in this
stage are still fun but replicate game skills more widely.
(3) Through the game stage we start the kids playing games with players we
assess as ready for the challenge. We keep no scores and coaches are
allowed to walk amongst the players on court to give direct instruction and to
sometimes even join in to ensure all the kids get involved. They also act as
referees to begin teaching the kids the rules of the game.
Once the kids have completed stage three and have been assessed as ready to join a proper team we sort them into teams, where numbers permit, to start in a domestic competition.
