Basketball
The Basketball section runs two sessions on a Friday after school.
The Junior session is aimed at children between 7 and 12. This session has a regular turnout and has competed in the Bucks Junior League. It starts at 5:30pm and finishes at 7:00pm. We have four coaches who are all experienced and 3 play for the senior section. Those three learnt to play through BEJSC junior basketball section. The head coach is also a fully qualified basketball referee. They will work hard, but it is made to enjoyable whilst learning the basics.
The Senior session is for 13 years+. It runs from the end of the Junior session, 7:00pm to 9:00pm This session is more about advancing onto more complex forms of the game, on both offence and defence. It also proves to be quite a good fitness training exercise for most of our senior members. While previous experience is not absolutely, being familiar with shooting, dribbling and passing is advised. All are welcome.
We are currently looking for new members, particularly in the 14-16 age group (year 9-11). If you are interested in joining the basketball section, or just coming down to see what its about, please contact us.
