The mission of the Development Program is to allow kindergartners, first- and second-graders the opportunity to learn the fundamental skills of basketball while having fun and developing a love for the game. This program is uniquely structured to help children learn the game of basketball. There are six 60-minute sessions. Each session consists of warm-up/skill development time and a 3-on-3 game where players have the opportunity to apply the skills they have learned. Each game is made up of two 15-minute halves with a brief halftime.
