OPEN TO ALL PLAYERS FROM ALL CLUBS. These sessions are outside of MBAns.ca's regular season and do not affect your current club status. These are extra sessions for kids that want to play more than just fall/winter.
Players will receive a reversible practice jersey to keep.
Our coaches are either lead coaches for the Rockets, Varsity Coaches or Local Trainers and former professional players for some divisions.
All sessions will run for 8 weeks and will consist of skills development and 3x3 games.
Most all sessions will be for 1.5+ Hrs, some gym slots will be for 2 hours.
Max 24 Kids in each session (4 Rims with a 3x3 game = 24 kids playing all at one time, no one on the sidelines)
FIBA 3x3 gameplay offers maximum opportunity for kids to get touches, opportunities and court time.
We will start sessions after the march break.

Chris Johnson, former pro player and the lead trainer at Tunnel Vision Training.
Leah Girdwood, former pro player (recently in the MWBA) and current Rockets Coach

Spots are limited - please register right away. EMT's or Funding Support that is not received or confirmed in time will result in your spot being put back in the pool.
We are still confirming our schedules and will update this site when they become available. All girl's sessions are targeted for weeknights to make sure players can play with their spring/summer clubs and also participate in the Daneesha Provo Spring League (Highly Recommended). We will also coordinate advanced boy's groups so that players can participate in Chris Johnson's Tunnel Vision sessions this spring as well (also Highly Recommended).
