Program Overview
Now in our 14th year, Fred's Basketball Association helps young basketball players chart their own athletic journeys through multiple levels of programming – all while being developed physically, socially, and cognitively. Adjustable hoops and appropriately sized basketballs are used to provide just the right amount of challenge for all players.
Rookie Ball (J) K & 1st - A non-competitive league meant to promote fun, exercise, and most importantly the fundamentals of basketball. We want players to have fun and want to continue to play basketball. All Levels are welcome. All Levels Are Welcome
JV Ball 2nd & 3rd - Players in this program continue to focus on the basic skills of basketball in a fun and age-appropriate manner. Individual skill and technique, combined with an introduction to offensive and defensive positioning, game rules, and basic off-ball movement are incorporated. Players will participate in 3 on 3 play on 8 foot hoops to support their development of proper shooting technique and promote lots of touches on the ball. The season will conclude with a 2-week tournament. All levels are welcome.
Varsity Ball 4th - 6th We incorporate a variety of drills designed to improve ball-handling, shooting, passing, defense, decision-making and more. In addition to developing their individual skill sets, players will begin learning advanced team concepts and tactics. Each session will include a combination of half and full-court games. All levels are welcome.
