Our later class on Wednesday are designed for the kids who are 7+ and are a little more confident. This program is designed to not only introduce the kids to the basketball basics, but to get them ready to play actual games. Kids aiming to play next winter (term 2) should consider joining this wonderful program with Kelsey. Kelsey is a Championship womens player & has a lot of experience & is an excellent teacher of the game.
4. Group 4 Saturday 11am with Joel McFall – Ages 6+
Our Saturday classes are open for all ages & abilities, ideally aimed at those aged 6 to 9 with limited basketball experience. Joel is a hit at our clinics with the kids & plays in our championship mens team as well as our u14-CH coach. Joel is one of our most experienced coaches and also our Director of Coaching. Put simply he knows plenty about the game & is a natural leader & motivator for kids of all ages.
