Basketball Academy

Developing Skilled Basketball Players

Our Basketball Academy aims to provide student-athletes with a unique opportunity to combine a quality academic education with development in basketball. The program allows driven young students to pursue their basketball aspirations while successfully completing their secondary education.

The program is committed to upholding high expectations of each and every student-athlete by:

• Constant monitoring of academic progress and performance reviews
• Developing skills within the game
• Providing strong pastoral care and helping you achieve qualifications that will provide opportunities for future employment within the industry
  

Selected students participate in a highly structured program which focuses heavily on skill development and advanced game play. The Gold Coast basketball development officer oversees operations and students will have unprecedented access to high level competition and representative success.

This program operates within the boundaries of the school timetable and lunchtimes. However, it is expected that this program will supplement participation in the club environment.

High performing athletes demonstrate an excellent understanding of the following:

• Game Tactics
• Nutrition
• Strength and Conditioning
• Refereeing (students will study for a qualification)
  
• Media Presentation
• Sports Psychology
• Sports Injuries
• Goal Setting
