Within this sector, children are engaged in activities and games which focus on further development and reinforcement of the ABC’s of movement. (Long Term Athletic Development) Introduction to skills such as skipping, basic gymnastics and body awareness exercises are all part of the teaching and learning curriculum within this age
bracket.

More mini basketball skills are introduced. These are combined with motor skills from LTAD principles so as to keep the young participant interested, challenged and motivated. At this age participation and practice is mixed. A co-educational philosophy is practiced here at Starlites as it is deemed to be highly important to have children
of both sexes playing and discovering the thrill and joy of movement in a shared environment. Participation in tournaments is regular and adapted for all. All children are welcome to practice, play and take part in social functions. Emphasis at this age is not on development of technique but on increasing the interest and enjoyment of participation. This will guarantee future active participation.

Games are adapted to mini games based on a 3 vs 3 structure in which children can develop basic space awareness and also have opportunities of discovering elements in options of passing, shooting and dribbling. Through this small sided environment, children will be able to develop progressively and eventually find transition to the 5 vs 5 game easier at a later stage.
