About the program

Where Skills Are Built

Saturday Skills is the cornerstone of the Varsity Vipers experience. Every Saturday morning, over 200 junior players take to the courts at Varsity College for expert-led skills sessions designed to develop fundamentals, game intelligence, and a love for basketball.

Our coaching team includes former NBL players and state-level representatives who bring professional-grade instruction to players aged 5 to 20. Whether your child is picking up a basketball for the first time or preparing for representative selection, there is a session designed for them.
