Testimonials

Jarrah Onley

I look forward to the days I do Rise & Grind and Elite training every week. These sessions and North Coast Basketball have improved my basketball all around, and it’s so good learning lots of new drills!

Nimi Mulder

While watching my kids at sessions, Rob's enthusiasm and commitment to the kids and the sport are evident. I have complete confidence that Robbie’s knowledge and coaching skills will enhance anyone’s skills and that his programmes are of a high calibre.

Fiona Fluechter

From the first practice, North Coast Basketball Academy coaches instil a sense of discipline, teamwork, and sportsmanship in all players. Their strategic approach to the game, combined with an in-depth understanding of each player’s strengths and weaknesses, significantly improves their performance on the court.

Heather Hozack

Anthony (11) has been doing Rise and Grind in Woopi and loves it. We were hesitant to put Alix (9) in there, too, amongst the tall teenage boys, but the North Coast team do a great job at differentiating the levels and making every baller, young and old, no matter what skill level, feel challenged.

Brooke Seccombe

My daughter has been training with North Coast Basketball for 12+ months. She is only nine years old and trains with all different ages and genders. She does Academy, Rise and Grind and Elite training. This has pushed her in such a positive way. The majority of her improvement and knowledge is credited to Rob, Blake and the team. I couldn't recommend more for children of all ages to improve development and confidence. My daughter loves it!

BE A STRONGER, FASTER, SMARTER BALLER.

The formula for success:
Rise early, train hard, stay positive.

GOT QUESTIONS?

  • No, North Coast Basketball is an independent company that focuses on providing alternative pathways for players to progress their basketball in regional NSW. 

  • Absolutely, our goal is to create more basketball on the days there is none. We want to see players achieve their goals and access development pathways outside of our programs. NCB runs development programs on days that do not conflict with BNSW associations.

  • Yes, we offer family pricing for families with three or more children. All you need to do is email us with the names of your children and the program you wish to enrol them in, and we can make the arrangements.

  • Sure do. Understand that things add up when signing up for everything, so we always try to offer packages for individuals wishing to attend multiple activities. Check our shop page for our latest deals.

  • NCB is based out of Coffs Harbour, NSW, where we run weekly programs. Our coaches run pop-up sessions outside of Coffs Harbour and travel to towns such as:

    • Ballina 

    • Byron Bay

    • Lismore 

    • Port Macquarie 

    • Taree 

    • Yamba 

  • Check out the "WHAT'S ON AND WHERE" section on our home page for up-to-date details on all of our programs and events. As sometimes locations, times and designated days can change.
