Yes. All our staff will go through our rigorous screening process, which includes on-the-job training, qualification & enhanced DBS checks. All Head and Lead coaches will also possess at least a Level 2 coaching badge. This ensures all staff members are fit to work with children and are good at it!

The cost of classes at each location may vary; please check with each venue at the time of booking. After your child's FREE trial, fees are payable for the remainder of the term.

11. How serious is the coaching?

We have developed these classes so your child can have fun, participate, and increase social confidence. Skills and techniques will be introduced, but we will not force children to learn a certain way. We aim to give them the tools they need to progress further within the sport of basketball and, above all, to have lots of fun.
