Jumpstart Program

Service Description

Launching Term 2 The Jumpstart Program will officially launch in Term 2. During Term 1, HoopLab is running Private Training sessions only while group programs are finalised. The Jumpstart program is a comprehensive pathway for new basketball players. It builds a solid foundation by focusing on fundamental skills, fostering a love for the sport from an early age. Who Is It For Designed for beginners, the program targets young players but is adaptable for all ages. It offers a welcoming environment for learning at one's own pace, whether for children or adults new to basketball. Levels The program has four levels: White, Orange, Red, and Black, each building on the previous one for gradual learning. White Level: Introduces basics like ball handling and court layout through fun activities. Orange Level: Refines ball handling and introduces footwork and positioning. Red Level: Focuses on shooting basics and layups, including off-ball movement. Black Level: Emphasizes teamwork and game rules through scrimmages. Skills Learned Participants will learn essential basketball skills: - Ball Handling: Control the ball, dribble with both hands, and protect it from defenders. - Footwork: Proper techniques for effective court movement. - Shooting Basics: Fundamentals of shooting, including stance and follow-through. - Layups: Execute right and left-hand layups. - Off-Ball Movement: Set screens, cut to the basket, and find open spaces. - Teamwork: Communicate and collaborate with teammates. - Rules: Understand basic rules and game structure. Through the Jumpstart program, players develop basketball skills, discipline, resilience, and sportsmanship, equipping them to enjoy the game and pursue further athletic development.
