Lil' Hoopsters' curriculum focuses on the technical skill work of basketball, such as dribbling, passing, court positioning, shooting, and teamwork, all the while allowing coaches to adapt instruction to individual player differences. This means that within a group framework, each player receives personalized lessons that move the player to that player’s own next level of expertise, so that they become more confident, skillful, and valuable players to their current and future teams."

Dribblers

3 – 4 Years

The Dribblers curriculum is designed to introduce children to the game of basketball in an exciting non-competitive environment. Children are instructed in basic basketball objectives, passing techniques and basketball fundamentals while building spatial awareness, social skills and working on their listening skills. Parent participation is required.

Dunkers

4 -5 Years

Dunkers classes are fun, fast-paced and introduce children to team play. The Dunkers class curriculum instructs on basketball fundamentals with a focus on coordination and teamwork. Children are instructed in movement patterns and positioning throughout each class. These skills will then be applied during scrimmage games on the court in the last few classes of the session.

Ballers

5-7 Years

The Ballers class curriculum focuses on positioning and further development of fundamental basketball skills. Children are instructed in shooting, passing and defensive techniques using our six-foot hoops. While learning new game concepts children are challenged each class in an instructor led scrimmage game. This is the highest level of our Lil’ Hoopsters program and is designed for children who are ready for a challenge and preparing to enter recreational basketball.

Swishers

7-9 Years

The Swishers Class Curriculum is a class designed for kids who are ready to grow their basketball skills. This class uses a combination of creative, basketball inclusive games, skill drills, and scrimmages to help prepare players for league play. Classes focus both on building fundamental skills (such as dribbling, passing, and shooting), and on teaching players how and when to apply these skills in game situations, thus expanding their basketball IQ and their understanding of a team dynamic. Coaches will also work to instill a strong work ethic and a strong sense of teamwork and sportsmanship within each child.
