“BUDDIES”
Intertwined in our program is
our 3 Basic Principles…
· yES i Can!
When
your child is attempting something new, they often feel that they can’t do it.
…We use this ‘Buddy’ to remind the child that YES they CAN!
· ITS OK
When
a child ‘misses a shot, or maybe throws a bad pass, this buddy helps remind
themselves that ITS OK! …And keep on going!!
·
RIGHT NOW! I’M SO LOVING THIS
We
recognize the immense enjoyment that can be experienced in any moment. The
children learn to appreciate their time at basketball and with the other
children.
These tools ignite positive self beliefs which
transcend onto the basketball court, in the playground at school, and in the
home. And they remain with us as we explore the contrast of our lives.
“4 DA LOVE” U/12’s Junior
Basketball League
All the children will be
placed into teams according to their ages and skill level.
They will have a full 40
minute game after their training session which includes
referee’s and all!
This competition will run for
the whole 8 weeks along side of the program.
Each “Buddies 4 Life” team
will be assigned a coach and while the children
who aren’t playing are
waiting for their game, they will be supervised by
our “Buddies Crew”. Each
child will be given a “buddy” who is on the court
playing, and they are
encouraged and cheer them along from the sideline.
Game Rules
Our “4 Da Love” Junior Basketball League has
rules to encourage more team play and ignite
every child to participate regardless of skill or
confidence level.
These special rules include;
o
3 Dribbles only
o
Half Court Man to Man
Rules will change as the Children become more
confident and competent in their basketball skills.
Parents Interaction
During the first hour, every
single week, all the parents are given the opportunity to participate in our
“Buddies 4 Life” Personal Training Session.
We run the group through basic
fitness training, core strengthening and even some basketball skills to help
with your coordination!
There are no additional fees
for this, and it doesn’t matter what is your current fitness level like. We
encourage healthy families because we believe that your health affects your
child’s health too!
We also have an assessment
form for the parents to help them become aware of their child’s confidence
level and how to positively influence their child in becoming more confident.
