The Fundamentals First – Pick Up & Hoop Class is the perfect introduction to basketball for young players ages 6 and up. This class gives kids the chance to play in a structured, fun, and encouraging environment while learning the right way from the start.
Instead of simply running up and down the floor, players learn to understand the rules, make smart choices, and build confidence each time they step on the court. From dribbling without traveling to passing to the right teammate, our aim is to develop the basketball IQ needed to enjoy the game and succeed in real competition.
In every session, players will:
- Build court awareness to see the floor and make better decisions.
- Learn the value of teamwork and playing unselfishly.
- Gain confidence to score against defenders in live play.
- Develop a positive attitude, whether shots go in or not.
- Show good sportsmanship and respect for teammates and opponents.
This program is not just about wins and losses—it’s about effort, growth, and learning to compete the right way. We teach our players that:
“I will compete with my best effort. Win or lose, I am still a champion.”
For parents in The Woodlands looking for a basketball class for beginners and developing players, this program creates a safe space for kids to learn fundamentals, make friends, and discover the joy of the game.
