I’ve signed up for the youth ball handling sessions. Will I need to bring anything?

Your athlete will need a water bottle and (2) Size 3 basketballs. These mini basketballs can purchased at Academy Sports or any sporting good store for about $10.  Please have your name written on your basketballs when you arrive.

No coaches for 3x3, Seriously?

Seriously. While that may seem counterintuitive, what it does is it eliminates the need for players to get information externally. In 5x5 there’s this constant connection between the player on the court and the coach on the sideline. By removing the coach, We are laying foundation for players to be more independent thinkers. Without a coach, , players have to look internally to problem solve. Players develop a feel for the game that they will carry with them throughout their basketball careers. 

My athlete has always played 5x5. Why should we switch to 3x3?

Have you ever watched your athlete play and thought that they needed more playing time? Or more shots attempts? Or wished that all of the kids didn’t crowd the ball? We all have had those thoughts. Here are a few benefits to 3x3:

• More time playing and less time sitting. There are 4 players on each team and 3 of those players are on the floor at any given time.  

• More touches for every player, resulting in more skill development and enjoyment.

• Better spacing for players leads to less congestion on the floor leading to improved skills implementation.

• Every possession starts in a scoring position at the top of the key of the key. This eliminates the time backcourt, providing more real playing opportunities.

Why is your league more expensive than other leagues?

This isn’t your ordinary youth league. Each week where players will there will be 30 mins of skills training followed by 60 mins of FIBA 3x3 games. Our basket instructors serves as refs, so that we continue to reinforce the habits that players are learning in the skills sessions.

I’m in high school and want to participate in the 3x3 league. Do have I have to attend the skills training?

We will not offer skills training for the high school 3x3 sessions. Show up ready to hoop.

Do I need a team to sign up for 3x3?

No. Although there is the opportunity to bring your squad, individuals can sign up as free agents and be assigned to a team.
