All the 3v3 details →Baseline · Why Swish
“There’s a reason so many girls drop out of the game. It’s simply not fun if you’re not comfortable and confident on the court.”
Bill Formella, founder
“There are some players that are destined to succeed no matter where they go and who they train with. The real test is in seeing what can be done with the players nobody else gets excited about!”
Paint · Who it's for
Girls 6–8, 9–10, 11–14, grouped by age.
Free-Throw Line · How we coach
No. There are no standings or seeding in the skills program, so coaches spend the time on individual improvement instead of preparing to win Saturday.
In the skills program she trains with a group of girls her age. If she wants a roster and a season, that's our competitive teams: a separate path.
Normal Swish skills sessions use teaching and 3v3 scrimmages. The developmental 3v3 events are the separate game-night opportunity.
No. Girls who have never played are exactly who the skills program is built for.
Not always. If she wants a full tournament season, ask Bill about competitive teams. He'll tell you straight what fits.
Center Court · Proof
She had never played basketball prior to this and we did not even own a basketball… Other parents have come up to me and asked how long my daughter has played the game and, when I tell them 2 years, they are shocked.”
“What you have done for my daughter's skills and confidence is simply amazing… As a 7th grader, she not only made her middle school team but was a starting guard for every game.”
From a letter of recommendation
“Bill has been working with Forsyth County since 2019 as an independent contractor and renter. We started with a few Swish clinics and have since expanded to include a long-running program, school break camps, small leagues, and tournaments.”
Authorized Pro Shot System Coach
The same shooting system used to train players like Karl-Anthony Towns and Trey Burke.
