Jump Higher with TNS and Chris Staples
Join Our Pilot Program
TNS Basketball Academy is collaborating with professional dunker Chris Staples on a new training program.
Specially developed to help young basketball players jump higher, move better and stand stronger on the court.
After months of preparation, we are now going to test what we have built.
And for that we are looking for motivated players who want to join us.
We're starting with a 10-week pilot program. A small group of participants will train weekly, stay in touch with Chris, and brainstorm with us on how to further improve the program.
This is your chance to help build something that will soon be used throughout the Netherlands—and perhaps even beyond.
What Are You Going to Do?
🏀 Train twice a week during a 10-week pilot
📲 Digital contact with Chris Staples
🎥 Being filmed and photographed during the sessions
🧠 Feedback on what works, what helps and what could be improved
💡 Think about the final form of the program
💸 Participation is completely free
Who Are We Looking For Players?
We select 5 players per age group:
-
Group 1: 8-10 years
-
Group 2: 11-14 years
-
Group 3: 15+ years
You don't have to be able to dunk yet.
What is important: you are motivated, curious, and enjoy training.
We want to create a diverse, mixed group — boys, girls, all levels and backgrounds are welcome.
How Does It Work?
This is the first step.
Complete the form below and register before March 30th.
We make a selection based on your motivation and answers.
You will hear by April 15th at the latest whether you have been selected.
If you're in the group, you'll have the opportunity to meet Chris Staples in person in early May, before the pilot program begins. We'll contact you and send you all the practical information, along with your parent/guardian.
