Participants will not only learn the fundamental skills of the sport they are playing, but they will also learn essential life skills such as active listening, team play, and goal setting.

Take it from Joe Dumars, practice is important. While focusing on certain fundamentals each season, our programs are designed to provide a growing challenge to returning participants. All classes meet 55 minutes each week for 7 weeks. All academy participants are required to obtain a Fieldhouse Membership prior to the start of the season.

The academies include:

  • Small coach to student ratio
  • An academy t-shirt
  • Awards & giveaways
