WELCOME TO CORE SKILLS
Level Up Sports - Basketball Skills Clinic
Level Up Sports offers 6-week courses to help students of all ages learn new skills, sharpen their talent and build confidence both on and off the court.
Level Up Coaches focus on the entire athlete from both a mental, physical and emotional level.
ULTIMATELY, this helps students “level up" every area of their life.

Each clinic, we will spend time in scrimmage so that students can apply what they've learned. This helps to solidify the skills and help them connect the dots to play.
Teamwork

Teamwork
One of the most powerful takeaways for our athletes is the sense of being part of something bigger and the importance of playing to each other's strengths. We help the students recognize their contribution as well as those of their teammates.
The Takeaways

1. Sense of Self
2. Confidence on the Court
3. Ability to Work as a Team
4. Grit and the belief that they can do hard things
5. Resilience and the understanding that both winning and losing are important parts of learning
