New to basketball? Looking to enhance your skills?

Tri-City Youth Basketball Association is pleased to announce the return of its extremely popular Skill Development Academy for Winter 2026.

Coaches instructing our sessions have experience at the elite youth and high school level.

These sessions are for players who want to develop and enhance their individual ability, focusing on:

Footwork

Shot Preparation

Shooting Mechanics

Ball Handling

Passing

Decision Making

Attacking the Basket & Finishing

Interested players, especially those at the grade 4/5 level, do not need to have a great deal of experience to take part. The most important factor when participating in the Academy program is to simply be dedicated to improvement and being committed to attending the scheduled sessions.

As these sessions focus on individual skill development, co-ed sessions are appropriate for both girls and boys to attend.

Registration is now open. These sessions have limited space so don't delay.
