Every great player starts with a strong foundation. TPF Foundation Academy is a six-week basketball experience designed to help young players build the fundamental skills, confidence and understanding they need to grow in the game.
Each week introduces a core basketball skill, builds it through repetition and then challenges players to put it to work through high-energy games and competition.
Five Core Skills

Balance, body control, stops, triple threat and pivots.

The Right Challenge
Young players don't all develop at the same pace. Foundation Academy groups players based on readiness— not simply grade.
Build the Skill.
Designed for players who are newer to basketball and still developing basic coordination, confidence and understanding.
Elevate the Skill.
The same basketball concepts with more movement, pace, decision-making and competitive challenge.
Build. Rep. Apply. Play. Earn.
The Foundation Olympics
The finale brings everything together. Players compete through five events built around the skills they've developed throughout the Academy, earn their final FOUNDATION COMPLETE badge and celebrate how far they've come.
