Mixed gender teams - However we do prioritise girls playing together and friends playing together.
Train 1 x 1hr per week. Training is focussed on building fundamental skills while incorporating some games to ensure fun!
Games are held on Saturday mornings at Runcorn State High School. Games are played on mini courts (1 full court is split into 3rds) with lowered hoops. Teams play 3 v 3 to ensure all players get the opportunity to be involved.
Coaches assist in refereeing the games at a suitable level based on the players. Rules aren't as strict while players are learning to ensure the games flow without a lot of stoppages.
