School Sessions
These sessions will focus on the fundamental skills of basketball, along with learning the basic rules of the game. Children will be encouraged to reach their full potential in a fun, energetic environment. Every child at any age has the chance to improve and develop at their own pace as well as gain confidence and make new friends.
Sessions are based around healthy competition, teamwork and a positive mental attitude. The aim is to bring the exciting sport of basketball to children whilst also teaching valuable life lessons on winning, losing, determination and what you can achieve from hard work and working as part of a team.
“Winning isn’t everything, but trying to win is!” - Coach James
Life is filled with competition. At KBB we teach children to compete to learn the value of winning and also to understand that losing is inevitably a part of all sport. Ultimately we want children to care about the end result because the fun and excitement of sport can only be truly experienced when we care about the overall outcome. This mindset can be applied not only to sport but to the classroom and life as a whole.
To see children start out in their school halls and grow up to adopt a passion for the sport and gain confidence and belief in themselves is really special.
Personal Development (PD) Sessions
PD sessions are 'invite only' and are for children who have demonstrated a good level of fundamental skills, a great attitude and work ethic, and are showing signs of being ready for new challenges.
These sessions are fast paced and will focus on advanced skills and understanding more intricate parts of the game. It will provide greater challenges and push the children physically, ultimately improving their skills and knowledge of the game.
