Basketball Academy

The Basketball Academy is one of the top academies within the North West. It teaches players not only the game of basketball but also important life skills off the court. The Academy takes pride in pushing athletes beyond their limits and maximising their potential. The coaches put in a lot of time with the team and individual athletes to teach all players the game of basketball. The Basketball Academy has seen a lot of success both in local and national competition for both the boys and the girls team.

If you are considering joining the Basketball Academy you will get a great experience and make a lot of new friends. You will not only learn basketball but you will learn things about yourself you never knew. The Academy players finish with many qualifications such as coaching awards and First Aid.

This will help you with your future studies and careers. The Academy will push you to your limits and further. Not only will you play basketball, you will also go out into the community and coach at local high schools. This is very rewarding and promotes basketball across the North West.
