After a very successful programme in November last year, Mini Basketball is back. The programme will be run on Wednesday afternoons at the Princess Ann hall - Tereora. The aim of the programme is to teach the players the basic skills at a younger age so that as they get older they can progress through to the older more competitive competitions.

The Mini Ball programme will run for all Wednesdays in the month of February and March starting Wednesday 8th of February.

The time slots are 4.30 - 5.30pm for 5 to 8 year olds and 5.30 - 6.30pm for the 9-12 year olds. A youth programme will be added at a later stage for the 13-17 year olds.

The cost is just $5 per child - but once this is paid the child will be able to participate in the next 2 sessions organised for later in the year at no extra cost.

We invite all kids to turn up with a bottle of water and plenty of energy. We are looking at giving the kids some basic training and games in each allocated time slot.

We also invite any parents or young referees out there who want to try Refereeing or coaching to also come along and join in with this fantastic Mini Ball youth development programme.
