Academy players are on court most weekday afternoons and play games on the weekend. That is DBBF league games in Denmark, plus EYBL international stages in Europe. We confirm host cities stage by stage. Over a season it comes to 30+ games, in Denmark, Lithuania, Sweden and more.
We sit down and watch film, so players understand what they did instead of repeating it blind. Mental training is part of the week too.
Basketball is how we prepare kids for whatever comes next. That means discipline, teamwork, showing up when it is hard, and handling wins and losses. Academy alumni have gone on to play abroad, and the connections are there for players who earn them.
Academy players have gone on to Orangeville Prep in Canada, and high school in Ohio and New Jersey. Their stories.

Questions
What does Academy cost, and what is included?
3.300 kr per half season, one price for every Academy team. It covers your team's sessions (U13 Academy 4 a week, U15 5, U17 5, U19 3), strength training, mental training and a jersey to borrow for games.
Which team fits my child's age?
Academy follows the Danish federation, which goes on your age on 1 October. A player still under 15 on 1 October plays U15, and the same goes for U13, U17 and U19. Send the date of birth when you book and we place your child.
We are new. Which session do we come to first?
A 13 or 14-year-old who played in a club before starts with U13 Academy, Monday at Strandvejsskolen or Friday at Bellahøj Hallerne. A beginner that age starts with Junior on Tuesday or Thursday. U17 players come Wednesday at Kulturhuset Indre By or Friday at Bellahøj Hallerne. U19 players come Monday at Svanemøllehallen or Friday at Nørre Fælled Skole. Girls 15 and up train with the Stevnsgade girls team.
