Junior Midwest Basketball Academy

Formerly Junior Puma Academy (JPA)

Matt Morgan developed the program. He has been with the program since the start. Matt’s passion and work ethic is 2nd to none. We thank you Matt!

Philosophy

 We strongly feel that the great majority of 2nd-3rd grade kids shouldn’t be playing AAU. We would rather build skills now to be able to play later in MS or HS when it matters. This will build a better player by getting kids more quality reps and more quality feedback.

Academy Overview

We will build better players by building a strong skill and knowledge foundation. We will build this foundation by focusing on:

  • Proper footwork

  • Proper shooting form

  • Enhancing dribbling/ball handling/passing skills

  • Playing controlled, small-sided games with rules

  • Having knowledgeable trainers giving proper feedback

  • Having contests with prizes, and ensuring kids have fun

When Does JMBA Happen?

During the fall alongside Fall League, and springtime alongside D League. Sign-ups will be posted on the front page of our website, and we will post upcoming dates and times through social media and email alerts.
