TRAIN. DEVELOP. ELEVATE.
At Dockery Basketball Academy, we believe every player has another level to reach. Our training programs are built to challenge athletes, strengthen fundamentals, build confidence, and develop the skills needed to perform when it matters most.
Whether it's improving ball handling, becoming a more consistent shooter, developing basketball IQ, or building confidence on the court, DBA provides purposeful training for boys and girls from age 5 through the professional level.
From personalized 1-on-1 training and competitive small-group sessions to complete team training, we offer multiple ways for athletes to put in the work and take their game further.
Better skills. Greater confidence. Next-level development.
Different players. Different goals. One development system.
Small Group Training
DBA Small Group Training combines focused skill development with the energy and competition of training alongside other athletes. Groups are intentionally limited — generally 5 to 6 players maximum — so every player receives hands-on coaching while working through game-specific shooting, ball handling, footwork, finishing, decision-making, and competitive drills.
The group environment pushes players to work harder, compete, and learn how to apply their skills against other athletes.
Develop your game. Compete every rep. Get better together.

1-on-1 Training
DBA 1-on-1 Training provides individualized instruction built around the specific needs of each player. Our coaches identify strengths, weaknesses, and areas for development, then create focused workouts designed to maximize improvement.
Whether you're working to improve shooting, ball handling, footwork, finishing, or overall confidence, every rep is centered around your development and your next step.
Individual attention. Purposeful reps. Measurable development.

Team Training
DBA Team Training gives school, club, and select teams the opportunity to train together within our player-development system. Sessions can be customized around the needs of the team, combining individual skill development with concepts that translate directly into team play.
From preseason preparation to tournament and in-season development, we help teams improve their skills, execution, communication, basketball IQ, and competitive mindset.
Develop the player. Strengthen the team. Compete together.

Open Gym
DBA Open Gym gives players the opportunity to get into the gym and work on their game outside of structured training sessions. Players can shoot, work on individual skills, get extra reps, and use available basketball training equipment in a focused basketball environment.
Whether you're getting shots up, sharpening your handle, or simply putting in extra work, Open Gym gives you the space to keep developing.
No shortcuts. Get in the gym. Put in the work.
