The academy provides a professional and structured programme of coaching.

Over two years, the academy aims to teach its student athletes how to play and understand a variety of systems that will allow them to succeed wherever they go in the future – like Europe, North America or the UK.

All team members are given a full basketball kit for walking around the school campus, plus training and game gear. The academy can also offer a bursary.

In 2015/16, the team is aiming to visit the US to take part in a high school tournament.
