UNDER 10 BOYS

This is a new training squad to the development programme. The idea of the squad is to start attracting children to the development programme - and to the sport of basketball in general - at an early age. It won't just focus on basketball, but also increasing general athletic ability and working on developing motor skills and co-ordination. Fundamentals and good habits need to be taught at a young age. This means that players eventually moving into the Under 14s will have a good understanding of how to play the game, and have some experience of playing in competitions before entering the national league.

The Raiders work closely in a lot of primary schools around the area, and this will hopefully allow us to spot talent at an early age. The training squad will however be open to a large number of children. Our aim is to give as many children the opportunity to play basketball as possible.

Training is on Sundays from 12pm to 1pm at Ridgeway School. Please contact us before turning up on either development@plymouthraiders.com or calling 07791 868320.
