Come play basketball

Wyndham Basketball is encouraging locals to come along and experience the fun of shooting some hoops.

The programs are facilitated Monday through Saturday at Eagle Stadium, the largest indoor facility in Melbourne’s west, as well as at a number of other key locations across Wyndham.

Programs are led by experienced and certified coaches dedicated to helping players reach their full potential.

The organisation also offers a range of school holiday camps that provide children the opportunity to keep busy and socialise when out of the classroom.

General manager Jason Kelly said basketball is a sport for all, and no one cares about your background when stepping out on to the court.

“At Wyndham Basketball you can join a community where individuals of all backgrounds come together to share a passion for the game and build lasting friendships,” Mr Kelly said.

“If you’re a basketball enthusiast aged five to 10 with limited basketball experience, then the Aussie Hoops program at Wyndham Basketball is for you.

“Programs are designed carefully and focus on skills development, ensuring that players not only have fun on the court but also enhance their abilities in dribbling, shooting, passing and teamwork.”

For those who want to take their basketball a little more seriously, the Domestic Development Academy provides an extra development opportunity for keen domestic juniors who want to play at the representative level.
