The fifth of our six class levels, Varsity Prep is designed for C-Team and JV-level players who are ready to identify and eliminate weaknesses with advanced techniques and high intensity skill development.. Most of our athletes in this group fall between the ages of 13 -16 but ultimately, it is the skill level we organize athletes by. Ball Handling Focus - Stationary and two-ball dribbling series to build hand-eye coordination and control in both hands - Change-of-pace and change-of-direction combos (crossover, in-and-out, hesitation) performed in tight space - Pound-dribble and pocket-dribble control to build a low, protected handle Shooting Focus - Form-shooting progression, moving from close-range mechanics out to game range - Footwork and balance on the catch — hop and step-in timing - Catch-and-shoot repetition from stationary spots, plus a free-throw routine Our six class levels are based on ability, but here are approximate ages for each level: Jr Dribblers (ages 4 - 7) Lil Ballers (ages 6 - 10) Young Ballers (ages 9 - 12) High School Prep (ages 11 - 14) Varsity Prep (ages 13 - 16) College Prep (Ages 15 - 18)
