INtro to basketball is designed to teach basic fundamentals and promote a love for the game! Currently OMGBA offers both Fall and Winter sessions.

Who: Boys and Girls enrolled in Kindergarten - 2nd Grade at a public or private school OR live in the Osseo High School or Maple Grove High School attendance areas.

Where: All Intro to Basketball sessions are held at Rush Creek Elementary School on specified Saturday mornings.

Cost: $70  ***NEW - All players that enroll in the fall program will get a free 27.5 OMGBA basketball***

Program Information:   We form groups and rely on parent/adult volunteers to assist with providing instruction and feedback to players.   The first two weeks will focus on essential basketball skills such as ball handling, lay-ups, short-shots, passing, and defense.  In week 3, we will introduce 3 on 3 games to help players put their skills together in a fun and encouraging environment.  It will provide players with experience playing with teammates.

Participants in this program will use a 27.5 size ball and shoot at an 8 1/2 foot basket. If you choose to bring a ball for your player, it needs to be a 27.5" ball. Make sure to have your name on it!

Interested in Volunteering? Please include that when submitting your registration online. No experience is necessary. The only requirement is a willingness to cheer on our young players as they develop a love for the game.  All skills are taught/demonstrated so previous experience/basketball knowledge is not necessary.  

In order for this program to remain successful, volunteers are needed!
