Junior Basketball Academies

The main aim of the Junior Academies is to develop the fundamentals and rules of basketball. In doing so providing a solid foundation from which any young player can grow to love and enjoy the game and even aspire to greatness.  

We recognise that children at this age grow and develop at different speeds.  What is important is to bring out the potential in the player and develop all of their fundamental skills.

Training sessions are normally on Saturday mornings every 2 weeks, and is aimed at children in years 5, 6 and 7 and can suuport the good work being done at children’s local basketball clubs and schools.

We currently have 2 Junior Academies aimed at boys and girls in years 5-7 at school based at:
