Our preschool basketball program was developed by a University of Technology Sydney graduate, so every activity is designed to deliver real developmental value. We focus on fundamental movement skills (FMS) like balancing, throwing, catching, running, bouncing and galloping, all wrapped in games that children love. For most children basketball is brand new, and the energy and joy in every class is incredible.

We handle everything. Your educators can join in or use the time to observe and document. All you provide is a space and a regular time slot.

Listening skills
Activities are designed so children must follow instructions to complete each task.

Loved by directors and children
"Little Boomers have just completed a term with our children at Panania Child Care Centre and what a great experience they have had. The communication from the administration was fantastic, the coaches were amazing with such a young group of children, and the children were so excited week to week to learn new skills and become the captain of the week. We look forward to another year with Buddy and his Little Boomers team."

Sessions run for around 30 minutes and take place on the same day each week throughout the term. We agree a regular time slot that fits your routine.
