Helping Athletes go BEYOND the X’s and O’s to improve performance in life and SPORT
2019 Live Academy in Malone, NY
“An amazing academy where it doesn’t just teach basketball but life lessons. My daughter can’t wait for next year! Thank you to all for making this happen.”
WHO WE ARE
We focus on MIND-BODY-then BASKETBALL! Our unique live academy empowers and inspires athletes to step out of their comfort zone, be true to who they are, and be confident in the fact that everything they need to achieve greatness is already inside of them.
From well-being, to confidence building, to leadership, to overcoming obstacles and failures, we develop our players from the inside-out!
On The Court
BTGA prides itself on the basketball fundamentals. Less games, more skill work! We teach the “how, why and when.” We believe if athletes understand the purpose of their actions, they will work harder, enjoy the game more, and never lose that love for the sport.
From ball handling to court awareness to to shooting to defensive positioning, we want our athletes to leave a drill understanding it’s purpose and proper technique.
In The Classroom
Based off from our ORCA leadership principles of - Opportunity, Resilience, Contribution and Accountability - student-athletes are inspired through stories of Missy and Colleens athletic struggles, challenges and successes. Our workshops cover essential life skills such as character development, goal setting, mindset, visualization, communication, confidence building, sportsmanship, teamwork, social media, and so much more.
Culture and Connection
Our culture and personal connection is our secret sauce. BTGA athletes thrive because they feel valued, the environment is energized and a personal connection with coaches and athletes occur immediately from the moment they walk in the door on day one. Through team building activities, problem solving, relationship building, role playing, or simply having a mega dance party there is always a lot of fun to be had! The bonds that are created, the new relationships which are formed last way BEYOND our academy doorstep.
