YFC Canada

Club Basketball

We have two purposes with Club Basketball:

Our purpose with Club Basketball is that every young person is able to come and grow in their knowledge and skill level in basketball while having positive, passionate influences and coaches in their life. If you find that you were not able to make the local club team you will find a place to grow in your skills at YFC. If you find yourself unable to afford the club fees elsewhere you will find a place at YFC, cost should never be a barrier.

Our Mission is to see every young person living fully in Christ, we desire to take care of the whole person through growing physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. We long to see all young people thriving in their hobbies and passions while being a light in their sphere of influence. At Club Basketball you will find coaches who truly see the hope and potential in every young person

The Values that guide our purpose:

Respect: For yourself, other players and the coaches

Accountability: For yourself, commitment to growth in the sport and to the program

Inclusion: Everyone deserves an opportunity to play

Teamwork: We are all better when we work together

Integrity: We act with fairness, honesty, transparency, and are responsible for our actions on and off the court

Community: Creating a safe place to belong and develop healthy relationships

 

How the practice/evening runs: 

  • Once in the gym you can grab a ball or partner up with someone and start to warm up.  
  • Once everyone is warmed up the coach(s) will run you through a few training drills.  Our intent is to help you get better and build skills. 
  • Once the drills are complete we will have a brief “team time” where we will take a few minutes (10-15 minutes) and one of our coaches will share something practical about life and faith.  Our desire is to develop your character and your game.
  • Once we complete our “team time” we will make teams and play a few scrimmage games.  Since this is the first year for YFC Club Basketball we will make new teams every week for scrimmages.
