2026-2027 FALL/WINTER EVOLVE GRASSROOTS FUNdamentals - MINI-LEAGUE BILINGUAL PROGRAM
Evolve is excited to continue their Grassroots FUNdamentals Mini-League for 2026-2027. In this program athletes will explore movement and fundamental skills for success in basketball. They will work on 25-30 minutes of age appropriate body stability/control, locomotor skills, and manipulative skills that will be practiced in a fun and engaging learning environment. Following the skill development portion of the session, teams will be split-up into teams in order to engage in age appropriate game play for 25-30 minutes. There will be U6, U8, and U11 co-ed sessions.
We have added a Tuesday evening skill development session for anyone interested in development for one evening per week. This session will be aimed to refine the necessary skills for success in basketball. Purely skill development will be the focus of this session and will have our athletes getting as many touches as possible throughout the hour-long practice.
The ultimate purpose of this program is for kids to get an introduction and improvement in skills for future success in basketball. This will help kids build their confidence and evolve into promising young athletes in a variety of sports.
This program will be offered in a bilingual learning environment. French and English will be used to explain concepts in order to further foster the development of the game of basketball in the French community in Winnipeg. All English, French and Bilingual speakers will be set up for success.
