Youth Basketball Training

We do Basketball Better: Welcome to the BBALL365 Youth Basketball Training Academy

A Youth Basketball Training Academy that Guarantees Growth

Level-Based Youth Basketball Training

The BBALL365 Training Academy is designed to help young players progress through measurable fundamentals, and we do it all while having fun! We’ve broken down a complete basketball skills training program into sub-levels that keep kids motivated and coming back for more. After one year, players will graduate to the next level, signified by different color uniforms.

Results Focused Basketball Skills Training

Before jumping into the action, players will take a skill-based basketball test to ensure they start on the right foot. We want to make sure everyone is at the perfect level for their age and skill. 

After being assigned to a group, players will start an incredible journey of leveled learning and progress; each level has a unique curriculum designed to build strong foundational basketball skills. 

But that’s not all. We’ll be tracking and measuring player progress every step of the way. We aim to help each player reach their full potential and become the best youth basketball player they can be!

Oh, and did we mention the class size? We keep it small with just 4-6 players. This way, players get tons of practice and repetition. Classes will not be gender specific, and all players will be treated equally and given the same instruction.

Training Academy Curriculum

All levels are grouped by age and use a specific basketball skills curriculum designed to build a foundation of learning and progress; some exceptions to the age requirements can be made if the player demonstrates a high basketball IQ and strong fundamental skills. All levels focus on having fun and loving the game of basketball, with fitness and teamwork at the forefront of every class. 

Players will sign up for each 12-week sub-level as they progress through the program. There are four 12-week sub-levels for levels two through four; a complete program lasts one year. Our instructors are highly qualified and have passed certification for each level. The sub-level descriptions below illustrate the depth and breadth of skills the Academy will focus on at each level.

To identify each player at their level, the academy uses a uniform system similar to the karate model of different colored belts. Players are required to wear their basketball uniforms to class to build community and team cohesiveness.
