Basketball Fundamentals Challenge (Bonus)
When an individual completes the Basketball Fundamentals Challenge as part of their basketball workout on a given day, they will be awarded an additional 5 bonus minutes on top of their actual total minutes completed on that day.
The Basketball Fundamentals Challenge serves as a simple framework to encourage kids to focus on the basics every day.
