Give your child the perfect mix of skill development and fun this winter with our Mecca Basketball Developmental League. This 8-week program is designed for boys and girls ages 5–9 (grades 1–4), combining coaching and gameplay to help young athletes build fundamentals, improve their basketball IQ, and gain confidence on the court. Each week, players enjoy a 20-minute practice followed by a game, letting them apply new skills in a supportive team environment. We emphasize learning and enjoyment – from tracked stats and weekly highlight posts to end-of-season awards, every child feels like a star while developing their love for the game.
