The Program

Built on fundamentals.

The first years a player spends with basketball shape everything that comes after. Bad habits learned at 7 follow a player to 17. Good habits, taught with patience and structure, become instincts.

The Creation Youth Academy is designed for this foundation phase. Whether your child is picking up a ball for the first time or already playing on a league team, our curriculum meets them where they are — and builds real fundamentals through structured, high-energy sessions that kids actually look forward to.

We coach the way we wish we'd been coached when we were their age: with detail, with patience, and with the conviction that basketball is a vehicle for something bigger — discipline, teamwork, confidence, and joy.

Weekly Schedule

Three sessions. Three purposes.

Monday & Wednesday
5:00 – 6:00 PM
Bonaventure Town Center
Core skill development sessions. Ball-handling, shooting mechanics, footwork, and basketball IQ taught in a structured progression.
Friday Gameday
5:00 – 6:00 PM
Indian Trace Park
Where skills meet competition. Small-sided games and scrimmages that let players apply what they've learned in a live game setting.
Weekend Sessions
9:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Locations Vary
Optional individual sessions available by appointment. Perfect for players who want extra reps or have specific skills to work on.
Curriculum

What your player will learn.

01

Ball Handling

Stationary and on-the-move dribbling, crossovers, changes of pace and direction, and protecting the ball under pressure.

02

Shooting Mechanics

Proper form from the ground up — stance, balance, guide hand, follow-through. Form shooting progressing to game-speed reps.

03

Footwork

Offensive and defensive footwork drills that become the foundation for everything a player does at higher levels.

04

Finishing

Layups with both hands, reverse layups, and reading the defender — developing a complete finishing package near the rim.

05

Game IQ

How to read a defense, when to pass, when to attack, when to slow down. Basketball intelligence taught early becomes instinct later.

06

Character & Effort

The non-negotiables — hustle, teamwork, respect for the game, and playing the right way. Basketball is a vehicle. Character is the destination.

Common questions.

My child has never played basketball. Is this program right for them?

Yes — this is exactly who the Youth Academy is built for. We have players starting every month who have never touched a basketball, and we have kids who already play on league teams. Our coaches are skilled at meeting every player at their level.

What if my child is more advanced than their age group?

We evaluate every player and place them where they'll grow the most. An advanced 10-year-old may be ready to join our Performance program early — we'll have an honest conversation with you after a trial session.

Do you offer a trial session?

Yes. Your first session is complimentary. Come see the training firsthand and decide if Creation is the right fit for your family. Book your trial here.

Can my child attend just one day a week?

Absolutely. Monthly members can attend any or all sessions based on their schedule. Drop-in pricing is also available for players who prefer session-by-session flexibility.
