Basketball Academy – American Tour Proposal

The Basketball Academy has already proven to be a huge success and to continue to

improve what the program offers we are looking at including an American Tour, which

would complete the student’s Year 10 and 11 program perfectly.

A tour such as this will provide our students with a unique opportunity to experience

basketball at its true home.

Outline

Tour to be ran for our Year 10 and 11 students, enabling them to compete against Junior

Varsity teams in American High Schools.

Tour to run with approximately 30 students.

We plan to hold our first tour with our Year 10 and 11 group completing the program in

Costing

2015 Academy Squad: $350 Development Squad: $250 This includes a Berwick College uniform, all tournament fees and the expert coaching. We have been able to keep our costing to a minimum as our program is predominantly run by qualified teachers with basketball expertise. Costing's may change in the future especially in the Year 9/10 program as students gain extra qualifications such as Refereeing and Coaching accreditation.

Enrolment Process

Application Forms will be due May 15th to Berwick College’s front

office

Late Term 2 try outs held at the school

We are hopeful ALL students trying out for the academy will

be accepted into the program.

The program will be levelled, so each

participating student is receiving

coaching to their current abilities.
