SPRING SKILLS & DRILLS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PRACTICES

The Higher Learning Basketball Spring Skills & Drills Practices are one hour in length and are designed for players (recreational, CAL, and travel level) looking to keep a basketball in their hand while balancing other sports/activities. Stay in the game and continuing practicing this spring!

Players attending our spring practices will work on shooting techniques, moving without the ball, ball handling concepts, and passing.  The court will be split up into small groups of 10-12 total players at each basket and are directed by experienced travel and high school coaches.
