Basketball Academy Program

Program Overview

The Maribyrnong Sports Academy (MSA) Basketball Program is an individualised high performance program focused on developing and supporting talented junior basketball players in their Victorian basketball pathway. Our coaches are endorsed to deliver Basketball Victoria’s SDP and NPP High Performance Programs to targeted elite young basketballers within MSA.

Our program is athlete centered and provides our student-athletes with autonomy to express and develop their individual talents within the framework of our program. We aim to promote and foster high performance behaviours and make them habitual to assist all our student-athletes in achieving their personal best. 

Training Sessions

To develop talented young athletes by providing them dynamic training environments to grow their skills technically and instill habits and behaviours that will translate to assist them in all areas of life. We aim to provide our athletes with the necessary skills and abilities for individuals to achieve personal bests and in some cases will lead to selection in State, National and International pathways. We also take great pride in supporting young athletes in balancing their sporting and academic commitments and strive to instill values that will lead to them being good citizens.
