An eight-week cycle for ages 7–9, taught in small groups, once a week.
Every session runs on the same standards, regardless of location or coach.
Kids are never just standing around. If a child isn't up, they're tracking when their turn comes.
One coach directing the drill line, one on the receiving end — not a single instructor stretched across the whole gym.
Pressure, mistakes, and decision-making moments are built into the drills themselves — not left to chance in open play.
Kids learn the language of basketball and the language of the Human Operating System (HOS) at the same time — through the same moment on the court, not two separate lessons.
A missed pass isn't just a missed pass. It's a moment to ask: what did your body notice right before that happened — and what's your choice now?
Advancement is a coach sign-off on what a child can actually do — not a formal test, not a grade.
Stationary dribbling both hands, ball protection, receiving, jump stop.
Moving dribble, chest pass, bounce pass, pivoting.
Hopscotch Layup footwork (both sides), defensive stance and slide, combining dribble and pass.
Full layup combining footwork and ball, shooting hand placement and release, rebounding.
Families get a role in this too, without needing to coach.
Parents observe rather than coach from the sideline — one consistent voice per child, and it's the coach's.
Each week comes with one simple question built from that week's vocabulary — a real conversation, not homework.
Neighborhood, family structure, or behavior at school is never treated as a diagnosis of who a child is.
