Come Prepared to Training

What to Wear

Please come to training in comfortable and athletic clothes. Ideally wear runners or basketball shoes. We strongly discourage long pants and shirts as the children will overheat. You can purchase our training wear from our online store if you wish.

What to Bring

Please bring a basketball of the correct size & a drink bottle to training.

What mindset to have

Training is the time your child will develop the most. We encourage talking to your children about expectation of behaviours before your first session as our coaches are there to coach not babysit.

Come Prepared to Games

What to Wear

Please come to games in full Syndal Storm uniform. Ideally wear runners or basketball shoes. Please refer to our uniform module for rules about uniforms.

What to Bring

Please bring a basketball of the correct size to warm up with & a drink bottle to games.

What mindset to have

Games are the competitive showcase of what your children have learned during the week and practised at home. We encourage a no pressure approach as children are there to have fun and get better.

Come Prepared as a Parent

Trainings

Please ensure your child has their drink bottle and ball. When coming to training also consider assisting the coach in drills, it is a great way to have fun with your child and the team.

Games

Please ensure your child has their drink bottle and ball. Please leave the seats closest to the scorers table for the coach and players.

What mindset to have

The children are doing their best to learn the game of basketball. We know it may be difficult to sometimes watch your child lose but we also want to make sure our children are not feeling pressure from parents to perform to a certain level. We have a zero tolerance for poor behaviour at games and trainings towards the children.
