BeGr8 Basketball Academy does not have upcoming sessions on ActivityHero right now. We can send you an email when they do.
Be Gr8 Basketball Academy is a youth basketball training program where we “Focus on the FUNdamentals”. Designed for athletes ages 5 to 14, we offer a fun and competitive environment to develop and master technical skills that will translate to team play.
Set at a pace appropriate for age and skill level, our small group training classes are set at a 10 to 1 ratio. This allows our coaches to pinpoint strengths and identify areas of improvement per athlete with a more personalized approach.
Building confidence, accountability and leadership skills are key to success at the Academy on and off the court. We strive to inspire our young athletes to not just be good but to unlock their potential to Be Gr8.
