Each Sunday throughout the school term we hold two basketball sessions:
- Emerging Skills, 12.00 pm - 1.00 pm, for children who are new, or relatively new, to basketball and will focus on developing basketball skills as well as social and listening skills. This session will maintain the same format each week, and
- Advanced Skills, 1.00 pm - 2.00 pm, for children who have played basketball before and are more skilled on the court. This session includes a warm up, running through some basketball skills, as well as other activities (which change from week to week) and finish off with a basketball game involving children and coaches.
