FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the skill level of these groups?

The skill level varies. The Elementary AKademy group is for players who are more advanced for their age (3rd - 5th grade), while the Intro group is very much for beginners of any age.

What are the practices typically like?

Our 60 - 75 minute workouts are focused on two things: get better and have fun. We go over everything, from spots on the court (does your advanced 5th grader know where the “slot” is?) to game rules (including taking ownership in your mistakes and not talking back to the refs), to every fundamental skill under the sun. Workouts are styled to follow this flow: one on one skills, team skills, competitive skills, game play. We do our best to try and hit all four of those each training session!

How many kids are there per session?

It totally depends… on average there are about 8 - 12 kids per session. We max it out, especially in the summer, at 16 per session. We can run very high quality workouts with this number, anything over starts to feel a little too much like a mini basketball camp and that’s not the goal here.

Who is usually leading these workouts?

Coach Alysa Horn. She has two years collegiate coaching experience, two years professional playing experience, and is a home grown Alaskan who looks out for Alaskan kids as if they were her own! Helping kids both develop their love and ability in basketball is a pillar of her coaching philosophy.
