What To Expect From The Clinic
The Kids Basketball Foundations Clinic is designed for children ages 8–15 who are new to basketball, developing their skills, or looking for extra practice before joining a recreation team.
This clinic focuses on teaching the foundations of basketball while helping children build confidence, teamwork skills, sportsmanship, and a love for the game.
No previous basketball experience is required.
Whether your child has never held a basketball before or simply needs more practice with the basics, this clinic provides a supportive environment where every player can learn, grow, and improve at their own pace.
During the two-hour clinic, players will learn:
*Stretching and preparing their bodies for movement
*Proper warm-up techniques
*How to properly hold and control a basketball
*Dribbling fundamentals
*Moving confidently across the court
*Passing and communication skills
*Basic shooting techniques
*Understanding basketball rules
*Learning positions and discovering where they may fit best on a team
*Teamwork and communication
*How to win with confidence and lose with good sportsmanship
Our goal is to help each child leave with a stronger understanding of basketball, increased confidence, and the foundation needed to continue growing as a player.
What Players Need To Bring
To ensure every child has the best experience possible, please arrive prepared with the following:
Basketball (Required)
Each player must bring their own basketball.
We want every child to have the opportunity to actively participate and practice the skills being taught. Because we do not have enough basketballs available for every participant, we are unable to provide individual basketballs during the clinic.
Please label your child's basketball with their name.
Water Bottle (Required)
Please bring a labeled water bottle with enough water for the full two-hour clinic.
Staying hydrated is especially important during outdoor activities in Florida.
Proper Shoes (Required)
Players must wear tennis shoes or basketball shoes with closed toes and proper support.
For safety reasons, players may not wear:
Flip-flops
Sandals
Crocs
Open-toed shoes
Athletic Clothing
Players should arrive ready to move in comfortable athletic clothing:
Athletic shorts or pants
T-shirt or athletic shirt
Sunscreen applied before arrival
Bathroom Reminder
A bathroom is available at the park; however, we encourage players to use the restroom before arriving.
This helps minimize interruptions during drills and allows us to maximize instruction time.
Parent & Guardian Expectations
This is a parent-supported kids activity and is not a drop-off program.
A parent or legal guardian must remain present at the park and stay attentive to their own child throughout the entire clinic.
Because this clinic takes place in a public park, parents and guardians remain responsible for supervising their children before, during, and after instruction.
Parents are encouraged to watch, ask questions, and learn the drills being taught so they can continue practicing with their child outside of the clinic.
Our goal is to create a family-supported environment where children feel encouraged and parents feel connected to their child's learning experience.
More Than The Game
Basketball is about more than making shots. It teaches children how to work with others, overcome challenges, communicate, and believe in themselves.
Throughout the clinic, players will practice:
*Confidence when trying something new
*Communication
*Teamwork and leadership
*Perseverance
*Respect for teammates and opponents
*Positive sportsmanship
We want children to understand that every player has a role on a team and that effort, attitude, and willingness to learn are just as important as skill level.
