Program Description
Get ready to bounce, shoot, and score! Pee Wee Basketball is a fun and engaging introductory program designed to teach young children the fundamentals of basketball in a positive, encouraging, and active environment.
Throughout this 6-week program, children will learn the basic skills of basketball through age-appropriate drills, games, and activities. Participants will work on developing their hand-eye coordination, balance, motor skills, and confidence while learning how to dribble, pass, shoot, and move with a basketball.
Each week will introduce and build upon basic basketball skills, giving children the opportunity to practice, improve, and become more comfortable handling a basketball. Through fun skill-building activities and basketball games, children will begin learning teamwork, listening skills, taking turns, and good sportsmanship.

- Dribbling: Learning how to bounce and control the basketball using one hand.
- Passing: Practicing how to pass and receive a basketball.
- Shooting: Learning the basics of shooting toward a basketball hoop.
- Footwork & Movement: Practicing running, stopping, balancing, and moving with the ball.
