Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I train for basketball?
To see true, consistent results, your athlete should be training at least two times per week. This way they can fall into a progressive and individualized training routine that will help them grow.
What kind of training do you offer?
We offer coach led, group training academies, 1 on 1 private training, and club sessions for team practices.
How do I know if I need a personal trainer or group training?
A personal trainer is a great way for either a new player who’s just starting out, or a competitive player who wants to gain an edge. In either scenario, the individualized coaching style will help the player progress at an accelerated rate. Athletes looking to clean up their skills, improve at a level and consistent basis will greatly benefit from group training as they can work alongside their peers and participate in training with others, allowing for a full range of drills.
Are there basketball training programs for beginners?
Absolutely! Our coaches are great at working with beginners, as they can help them learn the fundamentals and develop the core foundation of skills a player needs to begin competing.
