Hello Solway Basketball Members and Families,

A quick reminder All Abilities training and Mini Ballers start tomorrow. Current players who feel they may benefit from the additional training/support are welcome to join. 

Thursday afternoons on Court 1 at the Stonnington Sports Center, Chadstone Rd Chadstone. 

Mini Ballers 4.15pm - 5pm 

Solway All Ability All Starts 5.15pm - 6pm

Nov 16th, 23rd, 30th, Dec 7th.

Mini Ballers - this pre competition training is targeted at children aged 4-8 who would like to learn some skills before starting regular competition. These are 45 min fun game based, skill development sessions designed to help younger kids develop a love of the sport and confidence before starting competition. Young Solway u8 players who have started this season but are struggling with confidence and learning the skills may also benefit from this extra training session.

To register for Mini Ballers, contact Ben Crowe at 0420 520 559

Solway All Stars - This is an All Abilities Training targeted at children with an intellectual or physical disability that are not able to participate in regular competition. This is a 45 min weekly training with games and basketball skills designed to improve coordination, group involvement and regular weekly exercise. While this is targeted at children who would generally not be able to participate in competition, children who are already playing in competition but struggling with skill development may also benefit from the extra training session. The 4 week trial would be a good opportunity to see if they would gain benefit from the training.
