High Level Training and Mentoring for Girls and Boys in Grades 3-12
We offer elite training that fosters skill development, character growth, and love of the game. Our expectations are success and growth from each of our players.
Programs
PTW programming runs seasonally and is tailored by skill level and age. Our programs are centered around three sectors:
- Elite Skills Training
- School Programming
- Town Partnerships
Skills Training
Our skills training represents our customized PTW lessons catered to individuals or groups. Our three skills training options include:
- Private Training: This one-on-one training pairs the athlete with one of PTW’s personal trainers. During the first visit, we evaluate the player and determine how to build the skills and confidence needed to take their game to the next level. This type of training is tailored personally to the athlete to ensure that lessons work on improving the athlete’s all-around skillset. We recommend that private training occurs every week or every other week. Long time gaps between training sessions are not effective.
- Small Group Training: Our Small Group training opportunity caters to groups of 3-6 athletes. It is designed for players wishing to enhance their skills while receiving a balance between individual and group instruction. This training level includes live play, game speed, game moves, competitive DNA, and matched skill levels/positions. The Small Group training option is a very effective environment to learn and grow skills. We recommend that Small Group training occurs every week or every other week.
- Large Group Training: The Large Group training option offers skill development as well as game experience. Our goal is to provide our athletes the competitive environment needed to practice new skills in game-like scenarios. This training is designed for larger groups, ranging from 7-12 athletes, with groups being split by skill-level and position. With 2 trainers leading the lesson, your athlete is guaranteed to receive the individual attention needed for growth. Each training session will conclude with live play situations, including 4 v 4 or 5 v 5.
School Programming
This program is all about our Bigger Than Basketball initiative. We use basketball as a tool to teach life skills, such as hard work, focus, discipline, and the ability to take criticism. Students will have weekly Skills and Drills training, and will receive Certificates of Completion, Affirmation Sheets, and Report Cards all while being cultivated by positive mentors.
Town Partnerships
Our Elite Town Program aims to enhance the town’s basketball culture with high level coaching. The program will help facilitate practices, improve the coaching staff’s knowledge and IQ related to team management, and incorporate team building, skills, and play calling. At PTW, we expect success. With this program, our plan is to bring that culture to your town.
