Basketball for Beginners

At Wayville, there is a fantastic program run by Forestville Eagles Basketball club where kids from all areas as young as 4 come and are coached for 45 mins each week on Fridays. As part of the Aussie Hoops program, kids are also chosen to then further develop their skills by participating in the Aussie Hoops mini-ball team at Wayville playing against other schools. This gives the kids who have exceeding skills to try it out on other kids and not miss out on playing a game each week, whilst developing before joining a district team.
If u give Forestville Eagles a call after the show has finished then im sure Paul Arnott can direct you in the right direction.
Next Aussie Hoops clinic starts in week 2 term 4.

Unfortunately, the u10 program at St Clair Saturday mornings has died due to lack of involvement.

It had been hoped it would pick up again during winter, but football has claimed too many it would seem.

Of course, getting involved in a mini ball compeition wouldnt hurt either, if you can find one close by.

Regarding playing games, my sister joined the U10 squad whenshe was 5 1/2yo but wasn't allowed to play until the year that she turned 7 (ie 3 seasons in U10s). I'm guessing that is still the rules. New kids are always welcome out to train.
