AOF BASKETBALL
3x3 DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE
The AOF Basketball 3x3 Development League is specifically designed for the ball player who wants to take their game to the next level. Players will be taught the fundamentals of basketball through 3x3 games, competitions, and drills, plus a focus on speed, agility, and mobility training. It is open to both girls and boys in the 4th - 8th grade, and is limited only by the total number of players we can accommodate. Girls and boys will not train together - there is both a girls and a boys league.
We will create game-like scenerio drills, challenge players to try new skills and moves, as well as learn how to become a team player that everyone wants on their team. Further, players will learn what it takes to play at a high level. We strive to teach the practice habits of champions based on fitness, mentality, preparation and time management.
League play will take place daily, giving players the opportunity to apply what they learn in development sessions and lectures while improving their overall skill and basketball knowledge.
As coaches, we reserve the opportunity change the rules, for example: No dribble, three passes before scoring, only lay ups, or change teams to make them even, or more challenging. Teams may change every week, and players will placed on teams within their skill ability, not age groups.
