BreakThrough Basketball • Grades 3rd–8th

BreakThrough Basketball is a unique development program designed for players who want more than a traditional league experience. Instead of being placed on a team with a short practice followed by a game, players participate in a structured blend of training sessions and scrimmage games—all focused on skill-building, confidence, and personal growth.

Program Structure

Players attend 8 one-hour sessions:

4 Training Sessions 4 Game Days

Each week alternates between training and games. 50% of the program is dedicated to training, covering:

Fundamental skills
Basketball IQ & strategy
Physical fitness
