New 3v3 Instructional Basketball League
Over the
weekend The Basketball Academy announced a
new basketball league. The new league is a
3v3 instructional league that is intended to
make players think about a different aspect
of the game each week. Players will have to
follow a different specific rule each week
that will, over the course of the season
promote the young players thinking about all
aspects of the game. The playoffs will be
free of the special rules where the players
will hopefully implement them on their own.
Each team will
play 2 games a week for 7 weeks beginning on
January 17 or January 24, 2009. There will
also be playoffs.
There are four
leagues:
Boys 5th & 6th
Boys 7th & 8th
Girls 5th &
6th
Girls 7th &
8th
The program will be broken
down into four separate leagues:
Boys - 5th & 6th
