Junior NBA approved program

Canada Basketball and the NBA believe following Sport Canada’s Long Term Athlete Development (LTAD) Model will put children in a position to be successful through their physical lives. Through a focus on foundational skills, children can work to become physically literate and the Jr. NBA acts as the entry point to basketball in Canada 

The Jr. NBA Youth Basketball (JNYB) is a national youth basketball program designed to develop fundamental skills, sportsmanship, and a love for the game of basketball. The NBA & Canada Basketball grassroots initiative empowers community sports groups, facilities, and clubs to positively influence youth through basketball.
