F.O.R.C.E.8 Youth Basketball Training (Boys and Girls ages 5 - 10):

This program is designed for the Beginner to Intermediate Level player. This 8 Week Program will be held on Saturday and Sunday emphasizing the Basic Fundamentals (Dribbling\Shooting\Passing and Defense) needed to develop into a solid well-rounded basketball player! The passion and dedication we provide goes far beyond the reach of most youth\beginner training you'll find and we habitually proved this class after class and practice after practice.

 

All of our baskets are able to be lowered to 6ft to accommodate youth players at smaller sizes and gradually work them up to 10ft baskets. This helps to eliminate flaws in shooting form caused by players trying to make shots at baskets too high for their current size.

 

The Youth Program like all of our other SP8 Ball Training Programs is constantly evolving to deliver the best learning and athletic experience we can offer! Learning The Core Fundamentals in any activity or skill is paramount to developing proficiency in that activity or skill.
