We start at 3 years of age, with our most of our kids coming into the Academy the year they start Junior infants. Our goals at this age is to teach them the basic motor skills and get a very basic understanding of the game.

All our baskets that we use are height adjustable. We teach the fundamentals of shooting on lower baskets that will help your child build their confidence. As they begin the build their strength, confidence and grow, the basket grows with them. We also use smaller basketballs which also helps the kids score more baskets in the size appropriate baskets.

It’s never too late to get involved in sports. Never too late to be active. Basketball is a game that can be learned over time provided the player puts in the time. There are many stories of many basketball players who didn’t take the game up until their teenage years!

The best time to start playing is today! There is no need to wait until the start of a new term. We take kids in any time of the year to join our classes. Please get in touch through our Contact us page and we will walk you through what class and times suit you best.

Sporty or not, all children deserve an opportunity to play sports, no matter their ability. Let’s let the kids play sports, and who know when they become sporty or not. They’ll make great friends, and stay active, and be in a fun friendly environment where they can learn the benefits of playing sports and staying healthy!

One of the biggest misconceptions about basketball is that you have to be tall. Really the game is about speed, agility and technical abilities. Does height help? Of course, it does with almost every sport! Unless you’re only bringing your child into be a professional basketball player, then their height won’t make much of a difference.

Just some athletic footwear and clothing is perfect, i.e. no jeans, dresses or boots. We provide the basketballs and all other equipment necessary for their classes.

Please contact us to via email or mobile so we can access what options your child has.

It is possible to try out a class for complete beginners to the basketball academy.
