Basketball Leadership Program
This fall Triple Threat Athletics introduces a new Basketball Leadership Program for 5th grade students at Krug, Gates and Nicholson Elementary schools. Athletes will be coached in advanced skills and drills and leadership development. Leadership skills covered will be: Lead by example, Effort is everything, Attitude defines character, Dedication to your passions, Earning your respect, Responsibility = accountability, Shortcuts don’t exist, Honesty is important, Integrity is a daily act, and Pride gets in the way of Progress.
The Basketball Leadership Program’s goal is to provide role models, coaching and discipline to empower youth to develop confidence, character and life skills. Every student will be challenged to envision themselves as a leader on the court, in the classroom and in their community.
Nicholson serves the Jericho Circle (Housing Authority) and Aurora Township students. Having worked with AHA students throughout the summer of 09 via sports camps and events, Triple Threat is excited to now also offer an athletic program in their school.
