Advanced Lil Ballers
with COACH RUSSELL

This small group training class is designed for athletes in 1st–3rd grade who have basketball experience and are ready for a faster-paced, more challenging environment. Players will continue building strong fundamentals while being pushed to improve their shooting mechanics, footwork, ball handling, passing, defense, teamwork, and game understanding.

Athletes will be introduced to more live basketball situations, including 3-on-3 and 4-on-4 games, where they can work on spacing, cutting, passing, defense, decision-making, and playing within a team setting. Coaches will help players understand basic rules, game flow, and how to compete the right way.

Kiddos will still enjoy fun basketball-related games and competitions, but with a greater focus on skill development, effort, listening, teamwork, and confidence. A big emphasis is placed on creating a positive, encouraging environment where athletes can grow their love for the game while being challenged to take the next step. Players will also receive access to the CTB content library for homework to help solidify the skills taught in class.
