DEVELOPMENT
3PB was designed to improve gross-motor and coordination skills in a positive learning environment. Children will build confidence and self-discipline through supportive leadership.
LEADERSHIP
A unique attribute of 3PointBasketball is that post-secondary athletes are given an opportunity to mentor senior high-school students in coaching children. In turn, they present themselves as positive role-models to the children participating in the program.
COMMUNITY
Community focused. 3PB’s vision is to have an excellent working relationship with local schools, bringing families together and creating lasting memories. 3PB also provides scholarships for coaches enrolled in a post-secondary institute to further their education.
THROUGH SUPPORTIVE COACHING AND LEADERSHIP , CHILDREN WILL BUILD CONFIDENCE AND LEARN TO WORK IN A TEAM ATMOSPHERE.

The students had tremendous skill development.. and enhanced student cooperation skills. I noticed the positive change in the students.
I highly recommend the 3PointBasketBall program to every parent out there… It is a great program for our community.
I was very happy with 3PointBasketball because it took an active sport that was not normally available to children at their age and introduced it to them in a fun way! 3PointBasketball really was a hit with my kids!
