SMALL-BALL (AGES 4 & 5)
“Small Ball” Basketball School is a great introduction to the game of basketball. The classes are fun but the MBA staff will work on the the proper shooting form, development of right and left hand dribbles and the right way to pass and catch the basketball. It is important to develop a solid fundamental base at a young age. The MBA staff will make sure that each player is working with the right form during drill work. We will incorporate live game play in both age groups.
Small-Ball Important Clinic Concepts
Development: Classes are FUN and Challenging but it is not learn or win at all cost. We understand that there are different levels of players and skill levels vary. The MBA staff will ensure that every player is working hard to improve and love MBA basketball!!
Growth: When having FUN each kid will work hard and not even realize how much better that they are getting. Players will grow by interacting with other's in the class and will learn how to be a positive teammate. The players will also be expected to have great listening skills and listen to coach's instructions. We not only want to work on developing young basketball talent but also young boys and girls that can learn life skills as well!!

QUOTES
The improvement in our kids since they have been in the program has been beyond our expectations. There is a process to what Rod and Woody do as we have seen new and more challenging skills introduced each year as the kids get older. Sticking with their plan gets you results!
Rich and Susan Carlton
MBA is THE place in the area for young players to get better! Rod and Andrew do a great job of working with kids, helping them to improve their game and become a better all around player. They know what they are doing! My son has been going to the clinics for two years, and with Rod and Andrew’s coaching, he has gotten much better, and he has become more dedicated to the game and his passion for it has increased! I have coached basketball for 15 years at the high school and middle school levels and a lot of MBA’s drills are ones that I have also used and recommend!
Bob Bilinski
MBA’S track record for developing players speaks for itself, but we
have seen firsthand how much improvement our daughters have made by being part of the MBA program. No other program within a 100 miles comes close to what MBA has to offer aspiring basketball players. If you want to be the best basketball player you can be, you need to be part of Rod and Woody's programs as MBA
