The Rock Basketball School is designed for players serious about their basketball education. Our school design will allow for more one on one time with smaller class rooms than Camps or Clinics. Participating in a Basketball School will give the player a constant basketball education allowing them to better their skills on the court and allow them to better their basketball education over all. Clinics and Camps do a lot of good and show kids the types of drills and practice they need to put in to become a better player. Our School is like going to a constant Camp all year round, Basketball is a seasonal sport but like all sports the better players are the ones who practice dailey and who work on their sport in the off season.
Classes Each Class will feature a different aspect of the game each day. Every class will dedicate some time to shooting though. The Rock Basketball School will focus on Shooting to ball handling and from passing to rebounding and defense. With a college level instructor you should see the difference in your childs skills improve dramatically.
PRICE The price per month will be $150 per student which will include 2 classes per week and 8 classes per month. All memberships will be paid in full prior to the student's start date and all classes for the month will be selected for the whole month and any changes will need more than a weeks notice. Additional classes and private one on one classes can be negotiated into the student's membership.
