2

How do I know if my player is ready for this level?

3

Good signs they're ready: they're keeping up (or asking for more) in regular club training, they can already handle the ball, and they're motivated to train on their own, not just told to. If they're new to basketball, Storm Starters or regular club sessions are the better fit for now. If you're not sure, reach out and we'll help you figure out the right level.
