About Ontario Summer Development Program (OSDP)

Ontario Summer Development Program (OSDP) is Ontario Basketball’s off-season basketball program that helps U12 and U14 athletes grow their personal, social, and athletic skills through programming that emphasizes teamwork, leadership, and learning.

This summer, Ontario Basketball will be running the U12 Training component of the program without a culminating camp due to COVID-19.
