Ten years ago a Centre for Basketball was established at Moulton College. Since then the Moulton College Basketball Academy has become recognised as one of the leading Basketball Academies in the country. Six years ago we were awarded Academy status by England Basketball and two years ago became recognised as an AASE Institution.
We are unique and unlike other 'Academies', in ensuring opportunities across a wide spectrum whether that be talented individuals or boys and girls who have a genuine interest in, and a love of basketball. We offer the opportunity for players who want to continue with their full time education and improve their standard of play. Our academic and basketball programmes are completely integrated, in other words; the basketball isn't just stuck on at the end of the day.
The programme consists of:
Study for a Level 3 Extended Diploma in Sport Development Coaching and Fitness which is worth 3 A levels
Âï Apprentice Referees Award.
Âï Table Officiating qualification
Âï First Aid qualification
Âï An opportunity to play on one of the three college teams.
Âï EBL fixtures where appropriate.
Âï Eight hours of practical basketball each week which includes:-
ï®ï Personal development.
ï®ï Team play.
ï®ï SAQ work.
ï®ï Personalised Strength and Conditioning Programme
Full access to our on site Physiotherapist
In addition in July 2010 Moulton was granted AASE Academy status allowing talented boys and girls to join the Advanced Apprenticeship Programme.
The college has superb residential facilities in a peaceful rural setting so for any young person who might benefit from a move away from home Moulton is the ideal place to be.
I know that many coaches are concerned that young players attending academies will be lost to their own programme. This isn't the case with us!!
All players are free to play with their own clubs at weekend
