ABOUT US
Founded by Coach Arnel Santiago and Coach Derick Gonzales, Journey Basketball is a Vancouver-based program, designed to provide athletes of all abilities with organized and skill-appropriate basketball training programs. We aim to help youth develop their skills as a basketball player while also showing them the importance of hard work, the power of confidence, and the value of respect.
Journey Basketball will be a platform for youth to build self-esteem, create bonds and develop life skills through sport. We aim to positively build on the physical health and mental health of our players.
For beginners, we offer instruction that builds a strong foundation, ensuring players develop properly as they progress in the game. For more experienced players, we focus on refining their existing skills with the goal of helping them succeed at any level they aim to reach. Our goal is to inspire all our youth to develop a passion for basketball and encourage them to pursue their dreams, both on and off the court.
How WE WILL positively build on the physical and mental health aspects of the sport.
We will give constant positive reinforcement to our players during training sessions.
When critiquing our players, we will do so in a way that will teach them HOW to reach this desired goal rather than just stating they did something wrong.
The players will be involved in a diverse curriculum that will help with their endurance, strength, and overall conditioning.
