4-5U Learning League (Clinic Style) 

This league would be a learning clinic-style league only on Saturday morning. 5 year old's will have the option this year to be in this learning league or play in the new 6U competitive league. This league would be practice clinic style for the first half of the time and then for the second half of time, it would be scrimmages. The kids would be given a Springville basketball T-shirt and basketball for the season.

They will wear the T-shirts each Saturday and bring the basketball with them to use for the skills training. The kids would show up and do the same warm-up drills each week to get them warmed up. They would then proceed to be broken up into 4 stations of drills. The stations will be focused on four different skills, dribbling, shooting, ball handling, and passing. We would then divide the kids up evenly and let them play in a live scrimmage game vs the other kids. 

THIS LEAGUE IS GOING TO BE MORE FOCUSED ON SKILL DEVELOPMENT INSTEAD OF SCRIMMAGES AND GAMES.
