ACKventure Sports Clinics
Basketball clinics focus on the development of the fundamentals required to become a well-rounded basketball player: dribbling, passing, shooting, and defending. These skills are demonstrated by passionate coaches through drills and group games, in which participation and overall enjoyment are emphasized. Groups will be divided based on age and skill level to facilitate maximum improvement of all players.
This non-contact football clinic blends skills and drills with daily games. Our coaches focus on educating players on various aspects of football including passing, catching, and teamwork. After skill-enhancing exercises, players will divide into teams and scrimmage one another in a fun and safe environment.
Tennis clinics will focus on the basic skills and fundamentals of playing tennis. There will be a focus on age-appropriate group games, drills, and stroke development.
Gymnastics begins every day with creative, non-competitive, theme-based games. Gymnasts will then participate in a warm-up and stretching, followed by rotating gymnastics stations. This program will develop and improve the gymnasts’ strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, and self-esteem. Coaches will work with groups and individuals on each event: vault, bars, beam, and floor. Participants will be grouped according to age and ability.
In the event there is severe weather and/or rain, the decision may be made to cancel outdoor sports clinics for the day. A notification will be sent via email 45 minutes before the start of instruction. No refunds will be offered.
