History of Club33 Youth Basketball
Our Beginnings
Established in September 1999.
Club33 began as an extension of former Toronto Raptor Antonio Davis' organization.
We saw a need to bring youth basketball to an area that was predominantly dominated by other sports.
Wanting to give EVERY child a chance to play sports we started Club33 Basketball.
We offer a safe, fun, structured environment which allows ALL of our young player a chance to learn, grow and have fun.
Coach Duffy has been involved with coaching since 1999. He worked directly for the Toronto Raptors from 1999 until 2004.
His role with the Raptors began with him working under Antonio Davis directly. Running youth programming, youth fundraising, reading programs and the Club33 Youth Developmental Basketball program.
When Antonio was traded, Coach Duffy continued to work with the Raptors, bringing youth programs to rural Southern Ontario.
When all youth programming funding was cut by the Raptors at the the of the 2004 season, Coach Duffy chose to continue coaching basketball locally because he saw a need for a program like this in our community.
Programs
We offer two programs.
Our 7 - 11 year old program is a good introductory program for kids wanting to learn basketball and develop a love of the game.
Our 11 - 18 program is a more physical program, further developing the skills learned in our younger program.
NOTE the age overlap. This is our transition year. Players aged 11 can play both nights, at NO extra cost. This helps them to move from the younger program to the older program with confidence.
Who we are
Our players are made up of a very wide mix.
Many come to us with absolutely no experience at all, some have limited school yard experience, or in class experience.
Others however, are driven and have been playing for years and want to develop and grow their game.
All are welcome to come out and play.
