About Us

Jr 3 League was created by Coach Kyle Deininger (Nordonia Basketball Association) to provide a platform for athletes to be able to develop skills. Our concept is simple, a system of learning, understanding & applying. We provide a safe place to grow & develop their game, encourage positive behaviors and inspire success on & off the court. 

Jr 3 League offers both boys & girls youth development program that combines skill training, practicing and league play in an controlled environment that encourages proper player development, decision making & leadership. Jr 3 League embodies the true value of sports play, as well as the benefits of 3 vs 3 game play: everyone plays, more touches, less performance pressure, more action & fun! We also provide a safe & positive environment and support athletes lives & basketball goals on & off the court.

Program objective:

  • TEACH THE GAME – We teach them the why behind an action, move, and offensive concept. We develop play makers, not play runners. A positive environment is also necessary, we end every sessions with players and coaches encouraging each other even after a tough competitive game!

  • SKILL TRAINING --  We help teach them the half court game that includes ball movement, floor spacing, screening & rolling along with finishing at the rim. We teach the 3 defensive spots on the floor - ON BALL - GAP/DENY - HELP SIDE.

  • PROVIDE RESOURCES – We provide our parents and players with resources needed to support our players journey. We have partnered with some amazing organizations!
