Basketball Mentors TUESDAY Skills Academy
AT THE BAYSIDE BASKETBALL HEADQUARTERS
2 Hewitt St Cheltenham, VIC 3192
In Term 1 2026 we bring you our BOYS ONLY Tuesday Skills Academy!
Our Saturday Academy has been running for 4 years now and has grown from 2 groups and 2 hours to 12 groups over 4 hours with our most recent academy home to 60 indivdiuals. BUT! the only issue with our Saturday academy is that BOYS PLAY SATURDAY!
To fix that, we have created a BOYS ONLY Tuesday Skills Academy.
3 time slots with 6 total groups starting at 4:30pm and finishing at 7:30pm
4:30pm is U10 Boys
5:30pm is U12 Boys
6:30pm is U14/16 boys
Our 8 Week, Term 1 Academy is designed to take male 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.
Our Academy begins on Tuesday 3rd February!
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 1 program will continue 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 age (top or bottom) and skill
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 the new home of Basketball Mentors, The BAYSIDE BASKETBALL HEADQUARTERS, 2 Hewitt Street, Cheltenham VIC 3192
