The model for Steve Nash Youth Basketball was established after
extensive research of existing community basketball programs from
across North America and follows the guidelines of Sport Canada’s Long
Term Athlete Development Model (LTAD). The program is flexible in
nature to allow local organizers to adapt the program and implement it
in their community while following the principles and philosophies of
the program.
