the extra pass
the ball moves faster than anyone can run.
deliver it on time and on target.
move without it. swing it one more time.
take the easy bucket that the movement made — every possession, all month.
until full-month registration closes — sun oct 4, 11:59 pm pt, or when the thirty spots are gone. whichever comes first.
full-month registration open · very limited space
an enforcer pushes the standard.
in october you pass it on.
the team you studied in september got beat by this squad in the 2005 finals.
seven games, and the passers won.
the extra pass turns good into great.
the four pillars · one a week
one possession, in order.
deliver it. move without it.
swing it. finish it.
both sessions of a week share one pillar,
& the week’s homework drills carry it home.
on time, on target
chest, bounce, overhead, push pass off the dribble. pass fakes. hitting a moving target. the mirror rep is catching ready — hands up, feet set, eyes up.
move without it
basket cuts, back cuts, relocating after the pass, setting and using a screen, holding your spot. pass and move, never pass and watch.
the extra pass
catch and decide in half a second. swing it, skip it, drive and kick. pass up the good shot for the great one.
easy buckets
finishing what movement creates: layups off cuts, give-and-go, catch and finish through traffic, 2-on-1 and run-outs. then the river parade.
the schedule · october 2026
eight sessions. one championship night.
mondays and wednesdays, 5:30–7:00 pm, doors at 5:15.
the last session is the river parade — championship, awards, and the champions wall updated before you leave the building.
homework lab:
eleven solo drills drop between sessions, the first on thursday oct 8 and the last due sunday oct 25.
full-month athletes get the access code in the welcome email.
the labs
two labs. placed by skill, not age.
same coaches, same standard, different curriculum.
the age ranges are a guide; the coaches place your athlete where they will actually be pushed.

- two-hand passing that arrives where it is aimed
- catching ready: hands up, feet set
- basket cuts and the give-and-go
- spacing: corners, wings, the open spot
- layups off the cut, either hand
rotation lab
- push passes and pass fakes off the drive
- back cuts against the overplay, screening footwork
- the half-second decision: swing, skip, drive-and-kick
- reading help and passing up the good shot
- finishing in traffic and in transition

what gets earned
five awards.
handed out on the river parade.
the playmaker
the extra pass turns good into great. this goes to the athlete who gave up the good shot for the great one, every single night, and made the whole lab play that way. and this is just the start.
the breakthrough award
for the athlete who grew the most. the floor moved under them this month and they kept up. and this is just the start.
triple double award
scored, rebounded, and made everyone around them better. and this is just the start.
the connector
took what we taught that night and used it in live competition an hour later. and this is just the start.
completion certificate
you finished the phase. every session, every rep. and this is just the start.
only single-month registration and membership athletes are eligible for the awards above.
coached by the real ones
the same staff who run private training.
programming designed by dr. julian penaranda, pt, dpt — a doctor of physical therapy, not a drill sheet invented that morning.
parents ask
not answered here? text us, same day.
is this a one-off, or does it keep going?
it keeps going. october is one month-long evolution phase inside a year-round system — a written curriculum, two coached sessions a week, graded homework, and awards on the last night. november picks up where the river parade ends.
when does registration close?
sunday, october 4 at 11:59 pm pacific, or the moment the thirty full-month spots are gone — whichever comes first. the first session is the next evening, so there is no late window.
my athlete is new. which lab?
placement is by skill, not age. the age ranges are a guide. tell us when you enroll and the coaches place them on night one; a $25 drop-in before october is the fastest way to be sure.
is the gym open on columbus day, october 12?
yes — session 3 runs as scheduled. if your school calendar is off that day, doors are still 5:15.
what is the homework lab?
eleven solo drills that drop between sessions — a ball, a hoop, a wall, a chair. your athlete films each one at home, uploads it to their homework folder, and a coach grades it out of 100. every drill is worth up to 10 leaderboard points. full-month athletes only.
what if we miss a session?
up to two make-ups per phase with advance notice. no notice, no make-up. the homework lab carries every drill, so a missed night does not mean a missed week.
what does a day pass include?
four sessions on one weeknight, $20 each, with full lab placement. the wednesday pass includes the river parade. day passes train in the gym and do not include the homework lab, the leaderboard or award eligibility.
