There Are No Shortcuts to Success
Playing sports is like living life – the fundamental skills must be learned, practiced, and turned into habits (character) in order to truly succeed and grow!
When the pressures build in a close game or in areas of our lives, our performance always falls to the level of skills that we have made our normal habits (character). Competition REVEALS our skills (character) more than it BUILDS our skills (character).
PRACTICE & TRAINING IS WHERE OUR GAME IS BUILT!!
Firm Foundation Academies provide fun, challenging, and encouraging environments where youth learn to develop the skills they need to succeed in their sports and in their lives. Firm Foundation athletes receive quality instructions, COOL T-SHIRTS, and a comprehensive handbook for them to continue their development at home with their parents and friends.

This is a developmental program that introduces the game of basketball to students. Within this program, players will begin to learn the basic skills of the game while also building character and leadership skills. Age-appropriate games and activities will be utilized to allow for a fun environment in which the fundamental skills of the sport are presented. Parents are expected to be involved and engaged in the home training portion. We will lower basketball goals to allow your child maximum success in their training, and 27.5 and 28.5 will be the only balls used. In order to secure your child’s t-shirt size, you must register 2 weeks before the start date, otherwise you are not guaranteed your exact size.
