It’s time to Bounce Back! 

The Chase Basketball team is excited to see athletes ‘bounce back’ into basketball with our Thursday Skills Training at Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre! The session runs from 4:00pm until 5:00pm every Thursday afternoon beginning on November 25th until December 9th.

There are two different types of sessions available in this timeslot.

Junior Dribblers
Junior Dribblers Training is for athletes aged between 5 and 7 years old. Training focuses on introducing athletes to the skills and rules involved with the game of basketball. This training is perfect for younger athletes wanting to try basketball for the first time. Junior Dribblers sessions will be conducted on a lower sized ring to allow athletes to have more success with their shooting while they are building their strength. Athletes will be managed throughout the term and any athlete who the coach deems fit will progress to the Beginner/Intermediate group.

Beginner/Intermediate
Beginner/Intermediate Training is for athletes aged between 7 and 11 years old. Training focuses on helping athletes improve skills such as dribbling, shooting. passing, rebounding and defence which will help them in their team games and/or prepare them to join a team. Athletes will be grouped based on age, skill level and friendship requests.
