Basketball College

At AUBD,we take a holistic approach in conveying the game and training junior basketballers. We strive to make our members all-around players that have mastered multiple areas and are not one-dimensional. It is critical that our members understand that well roundedness is key not only in basketball, but also in life. With this in mind, AUBD created Basketball College to be a comprehensive training program to encompasses all aspects of basketball. The program is designed to prepare Australian juniors to play college basketball in America and professional leagues around the world.



BasketballCollege is a 6-month HIGH INTENSITY program that is broken down into three 2-month intervals with the first interval dedicated to defense, the second interval focusing on offense and the last interval teaching basketball situation and scenarios. Each monthly training program incorporates drills that target specific aspects of the interval theme. There is also a strong emphasis on conditioning and fitness training throughout all three intervals.

Education is also a major priority at AUBD in our quest to fully prepare our members for American college basketball.  In the collegiate system, there is a simple rule regarding student-athletes, if you don't pass, you don't play.  This same rule applies here in Australia for the Basketball College.  Once accepted into the program, allmembers are subject to random monthly school checks. If any member is not maintaining a satisfactory level of performance upon being checked, they are immediately suspended from the program. NO EXCEPTIONS. 

Basketball College is suited for elite juniors aged 12- 18 years old who exhibit exceptional skill and aspire to play on the highest levels in the world. For that reason, all Basketball College members are hand selected by AUBD staff via:
