Introducing the 5x5 Challenge:

The goal of this challenge is to build a strong shooting foundation across the Lakeville North Girls basketball program. Strong basketball programs have players that can shoot consistently from anywhere on the court.

Players will have an opportunity to participate in this FREE challenge, in each session they will shoot from five different locations around the court. Shooters will have two minutes - two minutes thirty seconds, depending on their ages, to make five baskets from each of the five spots on the court for a total of 25 makes. Players will have two opportunities to shoot during their 30-minute session and will be asked to rebound for another shooters two attempts. Please only sign up for one session each date. Each 30-mnute session is limited to 36 participants. Parents are welcome to watch from above on the track.

Sessions will be held at Lakeville North High School on September 23rd, September 28th, and September 30th. Times depend on age- please see below for details.
