OPEN
GYMS
Most open gyms are just about showing up and playing. At NorStar, we take it a step further. Our Open Gyms are designed to give you the best of both worlds: competitive game play that lets athletes shine, and purposeful coaching that helps them grow.
What to expect?
-
Real Game Play – Compete in live, fast-paced, game-like situations.
-
Hands-On Coaching – Get immediate feedback from experienced coaches while you play, so you don’t just run through reps, you actually improve.
-
Skill + Strategy – Learn how to make smarter decisions in real time, not just in drills.
-
Confidence Building – Leave every session sharper, stronger, and more prepared for matches and tryouts.
This isn’t just an open gym. This is coaching in action. You’ll walk out better than when you walked in!
Who Should Attend?
-
Athletes preparing for tryouts.
-
