Do the 8 week skills camp classes accommodate all types of skill levels (beginner and experienced)?
Absolutely. We welcome all skill level players to our camps with wide open arms. Our camps have been designed to ensure that whether you are a beginner level player or an experienced one - each and every player will feel comfortable and confident during their entire camp experience with us. At our 8 Week basketball camps - no playing experience is required. Our 8 week basketball skills camps are designed to train, develop and challenge both the beginner level and experienced level basketball players. Every players skill level will be assessed by our coaches during the first class. Players will then be grouped with players at their similar skill level and age groups so players feel comfortable during the entire 8 week camp on Sundays.

ST. MARGARET'S PRIVATE SCHOOL, 1080 Lucas Avenue, Victoria, BC, V8X 3P7 (https://www.stmarg.ca/) The gymnasium at St. Margaret's School is a state of the art 8000 square foot gym which has a total of 6 basketball hoops. It is a massive facility, perfect for our players to learn, grow and develop. St. Margaret's School is located in Saanich just a 5 minute drive from the corner of McKenzie Street and Quadra Street. We understand the sacrifices parents have to make for their children and we sincerely hope that your child gets the opportunity to join our camp. You won't be disappointed!
How can my player be chosen to play on the tournament team?
All players looking to play on our elite boys basketball travel teams must tryout for the team and be selected by our coaches to play either on our ELITE U11, U12, U13, U14, U15, U16, U17 OR U18 teams. Only selected players will have the opportunity to play on our teams. We highly recommend your player be on a high skill level bracket in order to be chosen to play on our tournament teams. Tryouts are held every month. You can register HERE. Why is commitment important in basketball/sports?
We highly enourage our players to dedicate themselves to our 8 week camp, and this is why: We believe that our duty as parents is to always give our children unconditional love, support and encouragement overall in life and in sports; win or lose. If your child has never played basketball before (and this is their first time) - then there is a small possibility your child may feel discouraged after a few practices due to their current level of skill (in their mind anways). But - THIS IS WHERE THE PARENT(S) COMES IN! Sometimes we as parents need to give our children a little extra nudge of encouragement towards how important commitment is in overall life and most importantly; in basketball. Basketball is a game of practice, repetative movements and habit - and from there is when skill is developed (over time). Skill is NOT naturally engrained in a basketball player; meaning they are not born with basketball playing skills. Skill comes from dedication, continuous practice, continous repetative movements and by creating positive habits. Rest assured we at Jumpshot Basketball Academy will give our 110% to create a positive learning environment for your child and encourage them fully, regardless of their skill level at the moment. Our objective first is to help improve their confidence in themselves; and from there your child will excel in all areas of sports and basketball. Our basketball program will run all year round! Being committed to something will not only teach them about their strengths, abilities and weaknesses, but also about THEMSELVES. Our 8 week basketball skills classes will help your child develop physical basketball skills, get exercise, make friends, have fun, learn teamwork, learn to play fair, and improve their overall self-esteem. If we cannot commit to the 8 week - weekly camps do you have drop in rates?
Yes, we do allow drop ins. Drop in rate is $40.00 per class. Please bring cash with you on the date you wish to drop in and give the payment to one of the coaches.
