PLACY® x Eastern｜Youth Basketball Movement Skills Assessment

Activity Detail: 29th March 2026

• PLACY® collaborated with the Eastern Basketball Team to deliver a movement skills assessment programme for U12 and U14 youth basketball players. Through a scientific and standardised assessment protocol, the programme comprehensively evaluated participants’ physical performance, providing athletes, coaches, and parents with objective information to support training planning, performance enhancement, and long-term athlete development.

• The assessment covered key components closely related to basketball performance, including body composition, agility, lower-limb power, upper-body mobility, core muscular endurance, and upper-body power. Upon completion, each participant received an individual assessment report and certificate, enabling them to better understand their physical strengths and areas for improvement through data-driven analysis while establishing more systematic training goals.

• This collaboration further promoted the application of sports science and physical literacy principles within youth basketball development by integrating evidence-based assessment into athlete training and talent development. PLACY® will continue to work with sports organisations and community partners to advance scientific assessment practices and physical literacy development, supporting the long-term growth and sporting potential of children and adolescents.
