Some exciting opportunities are coming up for young basketball players in the Cowichan Valley.
First up is a Spring Break development camp running March 14-16 at Cowichan Secondary School, with separate sessions for Grades 4-7 and 8-10.
Run by coach Sandeep Heer, the camp will focus on shooting form, ball-handling, attacking the basket at game speed, reading situations in competitive environments, fundamental defensive principles, and transition play.
The cost is $70 per camper, or $60 for siblings. Grade 4-7 sessions run from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., and Grade 8-10 sessions are from 1-4 p.m.
Heer is also starting a spring league focused on elite player development for athletes from grades 4-12.
The league will begin April 4, with eight sessions at Cowichan Secondary on Mondays and Tuesdays. Players will be divided into four groups: Grade 4-6 boys and girls, Grade 7-9 boys and girls, Grade 8-12 girls, and Grade 10-12 boys.
Registration is $50 per player.
