About the JNYB Program: Fun, Basketball Authentic, Maximum Basketball
Touches NBA Canada and Canada Basketball decided to partner up to
merge and expand their existing youth basketball development programs-
the Jr. NBA Rookie Division and Steve Nash Youth Basketball- to create
the Jr. NBA Youth Basketball program (JNYB). JNYB is the official
grassroots basketball development program in Canada now reaching youth
ages 5-12. The program is designed to offer a fun and enjoyable
experience with emphasis on appropriate basketball training at
different stages of development for young athletes following Sport
Canada’s Long-Term Athlete Development model (LTAD). Our aim is to
deliver an aligned, consistent and systematic development system for
all youth at the grassroots level across Canada. The program will be
further broken down into three age categories – 5-6 age group; 7-9
age group; 10-12 age group.
