This program is for all kids who are interested in playing basketball regardless of experience level. The program will be beneficial to kids at each stage of their basketball careers, whether they have been playing for a few years, or have never touched a basketball before. We will work on the basic fundamentals of the game, passing, shooting, and dribbling, as well as being a great teammate.  For the duration of the program, you will learn the rules of the game, improve skill sets, and most importantly, how to be an integral part of a team. Coach Nate and Coach Julian have extensive experience coaching and playing the game, and will create an environment that is comfortable for each and every kid.
