Dakota Niners Basketball Program
After an exhaustive search we have located a gym that will allow outside organizations to use their facilities. At this time, no city or public school gyms are allowing anyone to use their facilities. We have developed policies and procedures relating to COVID-19. These documents are uploaded to our website.
The former Grant-Deuel Gym in Revillo, SD has agreed to allow us to lease their gym Wednesday's 1pm-9pm and Sunday's 3pm-9pm. This gym is in great condition and has a nice wood floor with 4 hoops. Revillo is a 35 minute drive East/Northeast of Watertown all on highway roads.
Starting June 10th, our plan is to have twice weekly 1.5 hour work sessions. We will have coaches instructing skill development, guard/post play, conditioning and basketball IQ. The cost is $400 per athlete for 14 sessions in 7 weeks ending on July 29. We will not hold sessions on July 5th.
Tentative Schedule based on numbers of athletes:
15u-17u Girls 4-5:30 PM Wednesday's, 3-4:30 PM Sunday's
12u-14u Girls 5:30-7PM Wednesday's, 4:30-6 PM Sunday's
16u-17u Boys 1-2:30 PM Wednesday's, 7:30-9 PM Sunday's
15u-16u Boys 2:30-4 PM Wednesday's, 6-7:30 PM Sunday's
13u-14u Boys 7-8:30 PM Wednesday's, 4:30-6 PM or 6-7:30 PM Sunday's
We will transition our sessions to a Watertown gym as soon as possible. From what we know now, all tournaments have been cancelled. Sanford Pentagon may be hosting tournaments in July. Since most camps have been cancelled, we want to provide the training opportunity to our Dakota Niner Families.
