Our programs are tailored into three fun and engaging groups: Minis (3-5 years), Littles (6-8 years), and Bigs (9-14 years). They focus on skill-building, confidence, and teamwork in a safe, fun environment. With expert coaching and age-specific programs, your child will thrive on and off the court. Watch them grow, make friends, and fall in love with the game of basketball. 

 

Minis 3-5 years

Our basketball classes for 3- to 5-year-olds are perfect for introducing young children to the fundamentals of basketball. These sessions focus on developing essential skills, such as balance, coordination, and the ability to follow instructions, through fun, play-based activities. Parents are encouraged to participate, making it a fantastic opportunity for bonding.

The program incorporates activities such as throwing, catching, and dribbling to build confidence and improve motor skills every week. Using smaller-sized three basketballs and lower hoops, children learn at a comfortable pace, ensuring they feel successful with every attempt. As they progress, they’ll grow more confident, develop teamwork, and make friends in a supportive environment.

Our basketball classes for 3- and 5-year-olds are designed to spark a love for the game from the very beginning, focusing on fun, confidence-building, and early skill development. Join our Minis programme and give your child the ideal introduction to their basketball journey.

 

Littles 6-8 years

Our basketball classes for 6-year-olds, 7-year-olds, and 8-year-olds are designed to inspire growth, confidence, and teamwork. At this stage, children refine their skills and explore advanced techniques, building on what they’ve already learned. These classes introduce a larger size five basketball and taller hoops, helping players develop accuracy, spatial awareness, and dribbling mastery.

Independence takes centre stage here, with parents no longer required to assist, giving children the space to explore their potential. Teamwork and communication are emphasised through engaging drills and friendly matches, fostering cooperation and leadership skills both on and off the court.

These sessions strike a balance between challenge and fun, helping children step out of their comfort zones and thrive in a supportive environment. Perfect for young players eager to improve, our Littles program lays the foundation for a lifelong passion for basketball. Join now and let your child take their skills and confidence to the next level.

 

Bigs 9-14 years

Our Young Ballerz Basketball classes, designed for 9-year-olds to 14-year-olds, are designed to advance skills, strategy, and game understanding. At this stage, players focus on mastering shooting techniques, precise passing, dribbling control, and manoeuvring effectively around the court. Whether your child is a beginner or already confident in their abilities, our expert coaches will guide them through both foundational and advanced basketball lessons.

The program includes tailored activities, ensuring that every player’s unique needs are met. Game-based drills and friendly matches teach key concepts like positioning, teamwork, and game rules, helping players apply their skills in real-life scenarios.

With an emphasis on strategy and leadership, these classes prepare players for more competitive basketball while boosting their confidence and enjoyment of the sport.
