PRIVATE & SEMI-PRIVATE BASKETBALL LESSONS


Private and semi-private lessons are a perfect option for players looking to catch up or get ahead.  Our lessons give your child individualized attention to help improve or master their basketball skills. You set the agenda by working with the instructor to determine goals.
