Diamond League High Performance Training

EYBA is proud to announce the return of the 15U and 18U Diamond League High Performance Training.

This program is open to all club and community athletes. We are looking for the top 60 Male and Female athletes in both 15U and 18U categories. Diamond League provides an enhanced basketball development opportunity for those boys and girls seeking refined competitive training. Athletes selected for this program will be encouraged to register for the 2024 Canadian Western Identification Camp. Our goal is to identify top athletes for recommendation to both our provincial and national governing bodies.

Diamond League is led by some of Edmonton and area’s top university, club and provincial team coaches.

Training sessions are formatted as follows:

1.5 hours of skills and decision making training
1 hour of gameplay (modified games catered to respective training)

These sessions are designed to maximize interactions between coaches, officials, and players to grow a better understanding of the game.
