Spartans Basketball focuses on the fundamental aspects of the game and is dedicated to preparing its players to tryout for their respective high school teams. This program is designed for athletes who are playing multiple sports throughout the year, and want to work on basketball skills during the Winter season.
The season starts in October/November and ends in early March. Teams practice 2 days per week and play in 1-3 local/regional leagues.
GreatDog Sports is focused on providing well-run volleyball training sessions that develop skills and build overall knowledge in the sport of volleyball.
Our indoor skills clinics are built around the level of ability a player demonstrates, not necessarily by age. We offer skills programs for almost every level of competition and we specialize in one-on-one sessions, as well as small group training limited to 10-15 players max.
