7th - 9th Grade Akademy

Make Yourself and 94ft Athletics present The Akademy, a 3 week in depth developmental experience for Alaskan hoopers to unlock their greatest potential on and off the court.
  • Akademies are 3 weeks long, and will run all through the spring, summer, and fall to help serious basketball players prepare for the next level.
  • Spots are extremely limited - we will only be taking 14 athletes for the 7th - 9th grade Akademy.
  • 6th graders wanting to participate will need to undergo an evaluation in order to be considered for the 7th - 9th grade Akademy.
  • Each Akademy includes curriculum on basketball skill development and strength and conditioning. It is taught by two of Alaska's most highly regarded basketball professionals, Alysa Horn, and Kenny Barker. Both coaches have excelled at the collegiate and professional level, winning multiple championships in their careers. Their focus now is helping young hoopers pursue their own journeys to greatness both on and off the court.
