YOUR LOCAL BASKETBALL HUB

Basketball in Dartford

Looking for a basketball club in Dartford for a young player? Kent Panthers runs a Saturday Development Hub at Haberdashers’ Crayford Academy, with junior age-group sessions and a girls’ basketball group.

Saturday basketball at our Dartford hub is split across two time slots. U10 and U12 groups meet from 10.00–11.00am; U14, U16 and the girls’ group meet from 11.00am–12.00pm. Choose a specific class before booking.

Our Development Hubs focus on enjoyment and progress: dribbling, passing, shooting, movement and playing as a team. Beginners are welcome. You do not need to be ready for National League basketball to take your first step.
