This program is for our youngest athletes who are interested in basketball and is focused on developing coordination, basketball fundamentals, and basketball IQ. The hoops are lower, the drills are simple and fun, and the primary goal is creating an encouraging, inclusive environment.
Our Development Academy is a 3-day program focused on skill acquisition and foundational growth. It’s designed for players who are not yet game-ready and need to strengthen their core fundamentals before benefiting from live gameplay. Because game play requires athletes to read, react, and execute skills under pressure, this program ensures each player builds the foundation to do so effectively.
Alongside skill training, athletes participate in Magic Elite’s interactive character development curriculum and online training platform—promoting growth on and off the court.
Players will participate in competitive tournaments, have more training days and begin learning advanced skills and strategies in preparation for high school. This is the final stage of Magic Elite’s Player Development Pathway.
