Fall 2024 Youth Program Guide

LITTLE ROOKIES BASKETBALL

JCC Little Rookies is a youth basketball league for boys and girls of all skill levels. Our aim is to teach the foundational skills of basketball with a focus on fundamentals and teamwork in a fun and energetic setting. The first 4-weeks consist of drills in stations, with a keen focus on ball-handling, shooting, defense, and spacing. The remaining 6-weeks will consist of game play. Each child will be put on a team and games will be played full court. Our trained high school and college age student/coaches will teach the rules of the game, how to be a teammate, and ultimately create an environment that has the little hoopers eager to continue to play the game of basketball for years to come!

Begins January 2025
