Section 1: Practices - Elevating Your Game

Our coaching staff is the heart and soul of the Avalon Basketball Club Program. We take immense pride in having a team of highly qualified coaches, including multiple current and former university/AUS athletes, as well as NCCP trained and experienced head coaches. Their expertise ensures that athletes in all age groups, from U10 to U16, receive top-notch training tailored to their individual needs.

Player development is at the core of our practices. We focus on refining fundamental skills, tactical understanding, and instilling a strong work ethic. Our aim is to nurture well-rounded basketball players who not only excel in all positions but also possess the versatility to adapt to any situation on the court.

 

Section 2: Games - Compete and Thrive

As an affiliate of the Newfoundland and Labrador Basketball Association, the Avalon Basketball Club Program offers its players a chance to participate in NLBA league games against local competition. These games provide an excellent platform to put the skills learned in practice to the test and showcase the progress made throughout the year.

Moreover, we actively take part in various fun and competitive tournaments, such as the Club Championships, Jr NBA Championships, and the Newfoundland Winter Games. Additionally, when opportunities arise, our program engages in exhibition games and invitational tournaments, allowing our athletes to gain exposure to different playing styles and experiences.

 

Section 3: Fitness - Empowering Your Body and Mind

We understand that physical fitness is a crucial aspect of becoming a successful basketball player. As part of the Avalon Basketball Club Program, athletes will have access to fitness training and nutritional seminars provided by APSolute Performance & Wellness. This esteemed local program is led by multiple experienced coaches, trainers, and staff, including Jon Reid of the Newfoundland Growlers.

The basketball-focused fitness training will elevate players' athletic abilities, enhance endurance, and prevent injuries, enabling them to perform at their best on the court.
