ADDITIONAL PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

The Technical Director of the program is Phil Galvin, considered one of the top skill development instructors in the world.

What truly separates our program from the rest is our unwavering commitment to player development.

Our comprehensive curriculum ensures that your child is working within a structure of development that is considered the finest in the world.

Our program also places a big emphasis on character development. Presentations on motivation, values, work ethic, and life skills are conducted at every practice session. Our program is far more than just about basketball…our goal is to truly be an ally for parents working to raise their kids the right way.

We also use the Notebook Concept for learning. Players from Starter Level up have a player notebook and take notes during all practices and games.

Games and match play are included into all teams (except Recreation) in each Term. Teams will play internal games and friendly games with other Doha based basketball teams. Our recreation level teams play internal matches intermittently.

Evaluation reports and Skill Assessments are conducted each term. Meetings are available with the technical team for players and parents to discuss the skills assessment and evaluation.

Players on each of our teams starting at the 14U Level and up take part in our NBA Basketball School Basketball Strength Program.

We have a Student-Assistant Program set up for our players who want to earn leadership experience.
