“If you’re not making mistakes, then you are not doing anything. I’m positive that a doer makes mistakes.” ~ Coach John Wooden. He was a legend on the hardwood as well as off it. He was as well-known for his teachings on success as he was for his basketball coaching. Following the coaching philosophy of Coach Wooden, we believe in allowing our kids to make mistakes during training and games. No better and faster way to learn than to go ahead and do it, and learn from one’s mistakes while doing it. #WednesdayWisdom #sgbasketball #riseasone #itsokaytomakemistakes #learnfromit https://www.instagram.com/p/BvgKqSAh3l2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=b4a1ms15u8oi

A big thank you to all our kids and parents for the successful day of matches in our very own School Holiday U9 tournament!

I knew Akshaj since his first day at @singaporebasketball academy, a fine young gentleman with a heart bigger than players double his size. The moment I saw him play, I knew he had immense potential. He had amazing speed & footwork, and a knack for stealing the ball. Invited him to join my team & he had an immediate impact offensively and defensively. He paid attention to instructions and is highly coachable. Since then, I’ve watched him grow into a great player and teammate to his peers. Having him and his family with us on the Golden State trip was wonderful as well. Sad to see him depart for Australia but looking to hear more about his future development as a baller there! Take care & never give up! #sgbasketball #riseasone #nevergiveup (at SG Basketball) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuaCVDrBjZF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1byvn4z37dm88

Coach TY @airpork90 - our homegrown kids’ specialist who has amazing rapport with younger kids who can understand his easy-to-understand instructions. He is one of our pioneer full-time SGBasketball coaches. Here’s him in action coaching the backdoor cut / V-cut. #sgbasketball #riseasone #backdoor #vcut (at SG Basketball) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtAyTK9hkf1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1flavi7w4okwm

It has been a month since our iconic US trip, the Golden State Experience! Certainly missed @warriorscamp , the NBA city and the exhilarating sights & sounds. Looking forward to our international trips in 2019 and hope to see more of you there with us! #sgbasketball #riseasone #goldenstateexperience #gsw #warriors #wherearewegoingnext https://www.instagram.com/p/BsbvwgqB3-6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1krm2s18m0z35

Commemorating 5 years in training with the first pair I wore back during our first session. #sgbasketball #riseasone #aj1 (at SG Basketball) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsPBBHeh524/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3jeoukt1k2kb

My 1st pair of Curry’s, the Curry 1 that I got in New York City at the @nba All-Star Weekend in 2015. Watching @stephencurry30 in person at the 3pt shootout and All-Star Game was a blast! And thrilled to get a pair of these there. Almost impossible to get them in SG then with Curry’s popularity at an all-time high and this being his first signature shoe. #tbt #curry1 #sgbasketball #riseasone #sgsneakerheads (at Madison Square Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsMv5lShGzB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=s26ze9c5jtid

Our first academy session 5 years ago & our teams that participated in a tournament in 2018. Like they say, the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. 千里之行，始于足下。#humblebeginnings #sgbasketball #riseasone #attitudeofgratitude (at SG Basketball) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsMVs-LB1xK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=htf6mfkb5gz0

After the fun & intense 4-day program, the @warriorscamp director and coaches share some closing words and thoughts on the camp and our trainees. We really appreciate having the wonderful team of coaches leading the camp, making it a truly amazing experience for our kids. Thank you once again and we look forward to more to come in 2019! And thank you @underarmoursg for the support! #sgbasketball #riseasone #gsw #warriors #underarmour #singaporebasketball #sgbball (at Ultimate Fieldhouse) https://www.instagram.com/p/BriN5ychyTl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kl1h9o98uy38
