EMPOWERING GIRLS, FROM BEGINNER BALLERS TO COMPETITIVE STUDENT ATHLETES AND BEYOND. A PATHWAY TO SUCCESS IN BASKETBALL.

FIND A PROGRAMME

Our programmes are designed to suit the needs of our players to support their basketball journey from beginner to competitive, and for those aiming to play at the highest level (Pro, US Scholarship, Women’s First Division, etc).

Players are guided through a staged development process depending on their ability and age.

    “We’ve absolutely loved being part of the Ahi Basketball Academy family. Ayva has always loved basketball, but being part of an all-girls academy has been such a positive experience for her. Not only is she learning new skills and techniques, but her confidence has grown so much both on and off the court.

    We’re incredibly grateful to Fili for introducing us to Ahi, and to Dan and his coaching team for the time, energy, and support they give to every player. Seeing Ayva’s growth and excitement each week has been amazing, and we couldn’t recommend the academy highly enough. We’re excited to see where this journey takes her - it feels like this is only the beginning”

    “Dan is an amazing coach. He is incredibly knowledgeable and always makes training enjoyable. The drills are fun, physical, and keep the girls engaged while helping them improve their skills. 

    What we really appreciate is how he encourages the girls to always give 100% and supports them to be confident in themselves and their abilities. He creates an environment where every player feels valued and included. 

    From the very first training, my girls have felt like an important part of the Ahi Basketball whanau. They love training and playing alongside their Ahi sisters and have formed some great friendships through the club. 

    Being part of Ahi Basketball is something they are genuinely proud of. The sense of belonging, support, and team culture is special, and we are grateful for everything Dan and the Ahi community have done for our girls’ basketball journey so far.”
