YMCA BASKETBALL SKILL DEVELOPMENT

LEARN TO SKATE

Set down some skills! In this once-a-week program, participants will develop individual skills through a series of structured games and drills – learning how to “own the ball” before they share the ball. Players will gain an understanding of the game of basketball and learn how to apply newly developed skills to become an effective team player.

Find your balance and confidence on the ice! Your child will become more comfortable on the ice through fun games and activities focused on improving balance and gliding. Participants will learn basic skating fundamentals and gain on-ice confidence in this fun, small-group program. A CSA-approved helmet and gloves or mittens are required for all participants.

Participants in the U7, U9, U11, and U13 programs must also have a full face mask attached to their CSAapproved hockey helmet.
