Absolutely! Parents and guardians are always welcome to stay and watch training sessions, classes, and events at Nebraska Basketball Academy. We have a comfortable parent lounge with chairs, couches, and TVs, as well as folding chairs, benches, and bleachers located throughout the facility so families can relax and enjoy watching their athlete train and develop.
Many parents also choose to drop their athlete off during sessions if they need time to run errands, work, or simply have an hour to themselves. Player safety is extremely important to us. Our doors always remain locked, entry is controlled through secure door codes, and there is always a staff member at the front desk monitoring the entrance.
