12 Session youth development Program
What to expect:
O
Our 12-week Development League is a blend of development and league play, with referees and scorekeeping. The program will be structured as follows:
- Evaluation Week: The first week will be dedicated to evaluating each player’s skill level to ensure teams are balanced based on age, grade, and skill.
- Training & Development Weeks: The next 2–3 weeks will focus on building skills and teaching essential basketball fundamentals.
- Game Play: After the initial training weeks, we will have 8–9 weeks of gameplay, where the games will be instructional—allowing us to pause for teaching opportunities and giving your child the chance to learn while playing.

Sports often package life's lessons
At Star Through Hoops, we impart tools that can translate in our everyday life. One of my favorite athletes once said:
"There may be people that have more talent than you, but there’s no excuse for anyone to work harder than you do.” – Derek Jeter
That goes for anything you are trying to excel in... not just sports.
