Individual Lessons: The cost for a 45-60 minute workout is $40.00. You can schedule as many or as few as you wish and you can stop at anytime. The idea is for parents to learn the program so you can continue on your own. We suggest four workouts to master the program, but it's your decision.

Partner Lessons: The cost for a 45-60 minute workout for partners is $70.00.

Workouts take place at 204 Spruce Ct. Annville, PA 17003

 

Mission Statement: To provide intense, intelligent instruction to help inspire young athletes realize and achieve their full potential.

The Higher Level Basketball Academy will: A. Demand Excellence B. Push you to your Full Potential C. Inspire you to Never Give Up D. Teach Sportsmanship

Why this Academy makes sense! 1.  Most athlete's don't even know where to start when practicing the things that are necessary when they are out "playing ball". They generally don't know what to do, how to do it, or how long! 2. Basketball Athletes too often think that just "playing ball" will elevate their game to the next level. Just like practicing your serve in tennis or your putt in golf, a basketball athlete must spend time developing the fundamental skills, instead of just running up and down the court for a couple of hours. 3. It is a proven fact that students who learn the workout routine improve and learn more than spending an entire week at a typical summer camp!
