Basketball Mentors Skills Academy
2025 Basketball Mentors Saturday Skills Academy is the place to go to, to upgrade your game, your skills and your confidence!
Our 10 Week, Term 2 Academy is designed to take your athletes through a detailed skills progression program that focuses on Ball Handling, Shooting, and Scoring. Our expert coaches will work with your athletes to develop the fundamentals required for success in their age group and future seasons.
The program includes a focus on advanced ball handling, finishing, and shooting techniques and moves, ensuring that your athletes are prepared for any challenge that comes their way. Our ultimate goal is to help your athletes progress through the outlined skills so that they can easily perform them during training without pressure and eventually, in game situations.
Our Term 2 program will start with a new training style with lots more game play, 1 on 1 focus and shooting with defence to help players transition these skills seamlessly into game situations.
Groups will be formed according to attendance last term and age group.
Athletes will train in small groups of 6, ensuring personalised attention and a tailored experience for each athlete. Don't wait any longer, sign up now and watch your athletes thrive on the court!
All sessions are held at 44 Murphy St, Brighton.
