Hey Kirkland families! Halloween season is upon us, and if you're looking for a place where your young ghouls and goblins can enjoy some Halloween fun without the fear of ghostly surprises, EBC Training Centers has you covered! We're not only Kirkland’s premier spot for youth basketball training, but this October, we're transforming our gym into a Halloween wonderland for a mix of spooky festivities and high-energy hoops. So get ready for some treats, tricks, and slam dunks!
What’s Brewing at EBC This Halloween?
We’ve put together a schedule that’s jam-packed with exciting Halloween-themed activities for the whole family. Here’s a sneak peek at the festivities waiting for you this October:
Haunted Hoops Open Gym Night
Dust off your best costume and get ready to hit the court! On Halloween night, we're hosting a special open gym session where kids can dress up as their favorite characters, athletes, or even superheroes. Imagine the thrill of shooting hoops dressed as a zombie baller or dribbling down the court as a miniature Frankenstein! We’ll have themed scrimmages, eerie music, and spooky surprises around every corner.Pumpkin Toss Shooting Contest
No pumpkins will be harmed during this event—promise! But we will be adding a twist to our shooting challenges by introducing Halloween-themed props, targets, and treats as rewards. Kids can take their shot, aiming at custom targets to win fun prizes. It’s a little trick, a little treat, and a whole lot of fun!Halloween Skills Challenge
This one's for the little ghosts and ghouls who love a good competition. We’ll have a spooky skills course set up where kids can test their basketball abilities with a Halloween twist. Dribble through spiderweb obstacles, shoot hoops over “graveyard” markers, and see if they can make it through our spooky maze without losing their treats.Graham Betchart’s Spooky Sunday Zoom
We’re excited to give our usual mental fitness Zoom call a Halloween twist this year! On Sunday, October 29th, Graham Betchart will lead a special session themed around overcoming fears, gaining confidence, and staying focused under pressure—valuable skills for basketball and life. And yes, costumes are encouraged for an extra dose of Halloween fun!Costume Contest & Trick-or-Treat Court
Halloween wouldn’t be complete without a costume contest! Kids can show off their most creative, funny, or spooky costumes and have a chance to win prizes in several categories. Our Trick-or-Treat Court will also be open, so kids can collect treats as they show off their costume and make their way around the gym.
Why Halloween at EBC Training Centers?
EBC Training Centers isn’t just a basketball gym—it’s a place for community, fun, and a little Halloween magic. While we’re passionate about basketball training and player development, we’re equally committed to creating a space where kids can enjoy themselves, connect with new friends, and make memories that last a lifetime.
Here’s why EBC Halloween is the best in Kirkland:
Family-Friendly and Safe Environment
Halloween can be a mixed bag, but at EBC, we’ve created a safe, welcoming space for kids and families. No jump-scares, no spooky stuff too intense for young ones—just good vibes, fun costumes, and treats galore.Costumes + Basketball = Unmatched Fun
There’s just something awesome about watching kids run down the court in costume, cape flapping behind them or wig bouncing along. Our Halloween activities allow kids to combine their love of basketball with the excitement of Halloween, creating an unforgettable experience.A Chance to Show Off Those Skills
Halloween isn’t all just candy and costumes. We’ll be sprinkling in some basketball fun with our Pumpkin Toss Shooting Contest and Skills Challenge. So while the kids are having fun, they’re also improving their basketball skills—disguised as spooky fun.
