​
Our objectives are: to improve basic game skills; shooting, dribbling, rebounding and passing, improve offensive and defensive positional play, improve overall fitness, offer continual coaching during “skills & drills” and also during games. Jr. Apache coaches instruct the skills and drills portion while officiating the games. Wabash High School varsity players will coach the games on Saturday mornings.
Our goal is to provide a fun atmosphere where kids come to learn, participate, and develop their skills/ability. Each Monday and Thursday night, for one hour, players will work on basic fundamentals. Through the season, we will continue to build upon those skills and make it more challenging. We will play competitive games on Saturday mornings. As kids play more games, officials will blow the whistle more as we expect players to learn and develop their skills. Yes, we purposely blow a call to keep the game interesting and put players in new situations.
​
Our expectation is for kids to be on time and ready to participate, be respectful, and have a CAN DO attitude.

Thank you for choosing Junior Apaches as one of the areas best youth basketball programs!
