Sunday Programme
Where Weekend Reps Build Real Game Skills!
Our Sunday Programme at Avondale College (Central AKL) runs in two streams so every player trains at the right level. Sessions blend structured coaching, small-sided games, and bilingual support (English/Chinese) to turn practice into real game improvement.
U12 TEAM BLUE — FOUNDATIONS TO GAME PLAY (10:30AM–12:30PM)
- Who it’s for: Players with ~1 year experience or current school-team exposure.
- Goals: Strengthen fundamentals, understand spacing and teamwork, and transfer skills into real games with confidence.
- Skills: Dribble-to-layup combinations (cross, in-and-out, between-the-legs, behind-the-back → finish), passing combinations & movement (give-and-go, drive-and-kick), shooting reinforcement (form, rhythm, catch-and-shoot), basic team defense (stance, slides, close-outs), and small-sided games.

1. DRIBBLE-LAYUP COMBOS & GAME BASICS
Refine ball-handling (cross, in-and-out, intro between-the-legs/behind-the-back) linked to strong layup finishes. Add footwork, balance and simple spacing concepts; build passing with purpose and confidence through 3v3–5v5 game play.
2. TEAM PLAY & SHOOTING REINFORCEMENT
Strengthen catch-and-shoot rhythm and shot selection, sharpen pass-cut and give-and-go, and improve transition decisions. Emphasis on moving without the ball, reading space and executing fundamentals in controlled scrimmages.
3. TECHNICAL DETAIL, CONTACT WORK & COMP PREP
Elevate individual details under pressure (tight handle, advanced finishing, off-hand layups), then expand team systems—PnR basics, motion spacing, on-ball/rotation defense. Include controlled contact and leadership to prepare for school/rep trials and higher-level competitions in the same age group.
