An innovative style basketball training business where youth are taught in the European method of basketball that teaches proper fundamentals using a solid development system. This flips the script for youth basketball training where the focus is on more practice vs. play to ensure a solid skills foundation. With a fresh, new leased facility with 22-to-25-foot ceilings, 13 baskets (including partitions nets to separate each basket), and an NBA wood floor. A welcoming lobby for parents to congregate while workouts are happening along with a small upstairs weight room. Three bathrooms each with their own private showers as well as a podcast room.
With youth ranging from a child picking up a ball for the first time to professional players who visit the facility to work out and provide feedback to the kids, this is truly a unique basketball training facility and business.
