What is Adaptive Basketball?

Do you like to play basketball? Have you found it hard to find a place to play outside of school that fits your needs?  Adaptive basketball allows you to play at your skill level.  We still play hard and have a ton of fun, but we let you be you.

Learning skills

Our coaches will take the time you need to learn new skills.  They will assure you have plenty of practice and time to master dribbling, passing and shooting.  Volunteers will help guide you thru drills and plays with support and encouragement.

Planning games

After a good warm up and working on our skills, we will play games every week. If  having a mentor with you on the court to learn the game, we will be there to help.  We want everyone to enjoy playing. At what ever level you are. Through drills and play we will be gaining strength,  better endurance, improving our confidence and our coordination.

Come bring you join us

Don’t forget to bring a friend.  They won’t want to miss out on the fun.
