We are excited to announce the program for the 2010/2011 JRB sessions! JRB is going into its 10^th season which makes it the longest running female basketball training program in the province. From the beginning, the philosophy of the JRB program has been to concentrate on teaching young female athletes the fundamental basketball skills they will require to maximize their potential on the court.  The JRB measurement of success is the development of the skills of individual players and their constant improvement.

The fall program consists of weekly training sessions where the athletes rotate through a series of coaching centers focussing on different skill areas. This year we will also be introducing a new concept for the fall JRB program. There will  be several weekend training camps this fall, which will provide an intensive training experience where athletes will have the opportunity to train with JRB athletes from rural Manitoba. There will also be an opportunity for the athletes to play on a JRB team in a tournament(s) before the Christmas break.

The spring session will continue to emphasize individual skill development but will add a greater emphasis on teaching team play. The athletes will play in several tournaments in Winnipeg and in the United States. The competition at the American tournaments is generally at a high level and provides a rigorous challenge for the JRB teams. Again, the emphasis is on development, hard work and improvement.

The fall sessions are organized so that athletes are able to play on a WMBA or Rising Stars team trying to minimize conflicts with game times as much as possible. The spring session has a more intensive training schedule which begins after all school basketball is completed.

1. Weekly training session begin the week of October 10^th. Cost will be $275/athlete
