Welcome to Our
Basketball Academy
”Every Oak starts from an Acorn.”
At our basketball club, we offer training for all ages, divided into two programmes: ACORNS for ages 3–10 and OAKS for 11 years old and up. Located at St. Peters School in Bournemouth (BH6 4AH).
Our academy provides up to eight training sessions each month, led by dedicated and experienced coaches committed to delivering expert guidance and support.
Our training approach is built on evidence-based principles, drawing on the latest sports science research and insights from our academic backgrounds. This ensures that our players benefit from a curriculum designed to foster both physical skills and strategic thinking on the court.
We recognize our responsibility towards the young generation. Our values promote ethical and sportsmanship behavior to create independent, mentally strong and emotionally conscious individuals that will be equipped for successful future lives.
Developing players’ decision-making abilities
Our focus is on developing players’ decision-making abilities through a multidimensional approach, encouraging critical and strategic thinking. Training sessions incorporate game-like scenarios and healthy competition to help players apply their skills in real situations, all while fostering values like respect, bravery, and curiosity.
