One Organization. One Progression.
Club Utah Basketball Academy is a youth basketball organization. We provide both competitive and developmental basketball programs for boys and girls in Pre-K through High School. Our primary emphases are player development, sportsmanship, teaching the fundamentals of basketball, teamwork, and healthy competition.
We hear the same questions all the time! Which team should my child try out for? Which league should they be in? How can my child improve? How can my player compete at a more competitive level? Through years of experience, we have now found the perfect system of progression for your player to continually develop their love and skills in the game of basketball. We provide a true progression in basketball in Utah - from beginner to highly competitive, Pre-K through High School, Boys and Girls programs, we will have a place for your player always.
3 Levels of Progression

The Developmental League (D-League) is currently for grades 1-10. It is designed for players at the beginner and intermediate levels, who want a more structured environment than what is offered at the rec/Jr Jazz level. Parents can choose between having a volunteer coach or a paid coach, depending on what their needs are. Our Developmental League is offered during Fall, Winter, and Summer seasons and includes 2 skills lab, weekly team practices, games, and a tournament. Professional Referees assist in our games.
