Powerhouse Academy - Skill Development Classes
Performance on the basketball court is a culmination of layered skills that can be executed at various speeds when facing an opponent. In our classes, we not only teach these skills but also monitor individual performance to ensure that each player is progressing throughout the course of the program. Our approach aims to empower our students by equipping them with the necessary tools and knowledge to enhance their game while they train with us and practice independently.
The Powerhouse Academy Program will teach players:
• Stance, triple threat, and body positioning
• Proper shooting form and shot fluidity
• Various layups, mid-range and long-range shooting
• Dribbling, ball protection and control
• Passing types such as chest, bounce, scoop, overhead, and hand-offs
• Footwork skills including pivoting, planting, and omni-directional movements
• Defensive techniques like containment, stealing, and blocking
• Game intelligence such as quick decision-making and court communication
• Play execution with position-specific strategies
• And more
Powerhouse Club Team - Competitive Games & Team Training
To transfer individual skills onto the court, players need well organized platforms and quality competition. Games test what we practice and provide valuable experience for future contest.
As one of our key differentiators, we focus on teaching strategies that help players recognize their broader impact on the team as a whole. This means teaching general strategies such as how to be effective as a team when you’re not running a specific play. In turn, players can align with a variety of settings, whether on their international school’s basketball team or in a club league.
That’s why our academy includes competitive games and team training where players can:
• Apply their skills and knowledge in real games, competing locally and abroad
• Develop teamwork with an emphasis on communication
• Learn offensive and defensive team strategies and counter strategies
• Understand player positioning on both offense and defense
• Build confidence in their abilities and potential
• And beyond
