SATURDAY MORNING OPEN SKILLZ DAYS
Development doesn’t happen by accident. It happens through reps.
Ford X Basketball Academy is opening the gym for our Saturday Morning Open Skillz Days, beginning August 29 through October 24.
These sessions are built for players who want more opportunities to work, compete, learn, and develop their game. We’ll focus on fundamental skill development while putting players in situations where they have to read the floor, make decisions, and play.

OUR DEVELOPMENT FOCUS
Our philosophy is simple:
Build the Athlete → Build the Skill → Build the Read → Build the Decision → Add Pressure
We’re developing smart players who play hard — players who can read the game, make decisions, and play instead of waiting for a coach to tell them exactly what to do.
Come train. Get your reps. Build your game.
