NEXT LEVEL ENFIELD BASKETBALL ACADEMY

ELITE BASKETBALL TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT IN NORTH LONDON

JOIN THE AOC NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

The Next Level Enfield Basketball Academy is run in partnership with CCCG Sports and is based at the College of Haringey, Enfield and North East London (COHENEL).  The Enfield based full-service basketball academy competes as the COHENEL Warriors and provides an elite basketball training and competitions program, alongside top-quality academic courses for ambitious young players interested in basketball excellence in North London.

Led by US college and professional basketball star player and coach, AJ Roberts, the Academy is committed to providing the very best basketball environment for both elite and developing players alike.  As a decorated and widely respected player, our Head Coach knows what it takes to be successful at every level of the game and is passionate about passing on his knowledge, skills and 'know-how' to the next generation of players at our Enfield Academy.  In 2023, he did just that - in leading COHENEL to the AoC National Championship, cementing the Academies place amongst the very top sporting colleges in the country.

Our mission at  Enfield Academy is to guide and support every player through to becoming the very best version of themselves they can be, both on and off the court, then helping place them in the best situation for their success after they graduate from the college.

Our teams compete in the Colleges Basketball League (CBL Tier 2), AOC (current AOC National Champions) and the Community Basketball League (Division 1 & 2) - providing more than 50 games per season for our teams.  In  addition, our Varsity team compete in international invitational tournaments overseas, giving our players invaluable experiences playing against international competition as we prepare our players for the next level.

Based at the Enfield campus, COHENEL benefit from outstanding basketball faciilities that include:

  • £1.5million Sports Centre fully refurbished
  • Full-sized sports hall with resurfaced basketball floor
  • ‘Glass’ main backboards – 6-8 practise baskets in gym
  • Industry standard cardio and resistance training gym
  • Free weights power stations
  • Bespoke basketball training equipment
  • Medical facilities and onsite physio treatment clinic
  • High quality changing rooms and shower facilities

The Basketball Academy is split into two areas of program development, Varsity and Junior Varsity squads, for both males and females aged between 16-19

VARSITY PROGRAM

Our Varsity program is for advanced/elite players and provides intensive skills development, strength and conditioning training, athlete support, guidance, technical individual and team coaching and a minimum of 35 games per season for gifted and talented players, including international travel for competitions - all for free.

With strong links to professional basketball teams and universities throughout Britain and Europe – alongside a bespoke preparation and placement programme for American colleges, players on our Varsity program at COHENEL will be well positioned to fulfil their basketball ambitions.

JUNIOR VARSITY PROGRAM

Our Junior Varsity program is for experienced/competitive players who are striving to get better and move up 'the ladder' to the Varsity program.  Our JV program provides many of the same opportunities as Varsity, with the opportunity for JV players to move up to the top level as their skills develop.

RISING STARS PROGRAM

For those who simply want to continue to learn and play the game, without the time-intensive commitment of the Varsity or Junior Varsity program schedule, we also offer a ‘Rising Stars’ program for early-stage/development players, which provides regular coaching, games and the opportunity to earn coaching qualifications alongside your normal academic college course while still enjoying all the benefits of being a student-athlete at the college.
