GERMANTOWN ACADEMY SATURDAY MORNING BASKETBALL CLINIC For the 29th consecutive year, the Basketball Coaching staff will be conducting our Saturday Morning Basketball Clinic. The program is open to all boys and girls in Grades 1 through 4. Instruction in the game of basketball is the primary purpose for young people who are new to the game. Each Saturday session begins with a 40 minute lesson in the fundamentals of the game of basketball by a member of the GA coaching staff. Following this lesson, the children are separated by age and ability so as to play games. The children are coached during these games by members of the Varsity Boys Basketball Program.
