Nona Basketball Academy Programs
AAU TEAMS
We offer competitive AAU teams for both boys and girls. Our teams run from 9U all the way up to Varsity High School. All teams will be coached by first-class well respected coaches. Kids on our teams will learn basketball, play at a competitive level, and most importantly be treated as part of the Nona Basketball family.
SKILLS TRAINING
Skills training is a huge part of the Nona Basketball Academy. We are blessed to have some of the highest profile and most elite trainers committed to working with our Nona Basketball players. We focus on teaching ball handling, speed & agility, shooting, and more. When you are a part of our academy, you will get trained by the best.
OPEN GYMS & SHOOTING
Many times players just want to simply get in the gym. We will hold many open gym formats where we do just that — OPEN THE GYM. Our players will have the opportunity to come in and shoot, do some skills training, and play pickup games in a more casual fun environment. All open gyms will be monitored by a Nona Basketball coach.
SUMMER CAMPS
The summer is the best time to work on your basketball game. The difference between good and great players is the work they put in during the offseason. We are holding two 1-week camps for the Lake Nona basketball community. These camps will be a combination of skills, fun games, competitive games, training, learning moments, speakers and more.
LEAGUES & EVENTS
In the future, the Nona Basketball Academy will be hosting a number of different leagues and events. From local recreational leagues, to adult leagues, to 3 on 3 tournaments — we will constantly be bringing basketball opportunities to our community.
