Small Sided Games (How Often?
In the middle of the off-season right now... and I am curious. How often (weekly) would you recommend players train with small sided games?

I'm a huge believer in SSG , it's the most game translation and think it allows players to "figure it out" with their own play style. Depending how many times players train, I try to do SSG I would say around 50% if possible.

@Daniel Cooper I like the 2 feet, because there's so many options and no matter your size or athleticism it can be super effective.

@Joseph Wunder stride stop is one of my favorites. I love the simple jump stop too because so many options and can go with either foot as well

@Daniel Cooper This and honestly when they talk to me about stuff outside of basketball. The trust and relationship building seems deeper.

@Joseph Wunder Just everyday small talk non basketball related has always been one. Also I try to joke and laugh with them even in certain moments of workouts, just to show that at the end of the day, basketball is supposed to be fun. We love it, are committed, and it's very serious to many of us, but there's way bigger problems in life than missing a shot or turning the ball over! I think that's been able to not put pressure and also have them gain confidence!
Differential Learning For ELITE Shooters
What's up Skool Fam! Have a few minutes in between our 8th and 9th high-level workout of the day lol... Wanted to make a post about how we've been utilizing DL (Differential Learning) in our shooting workouts Some of the player's we work with easily make 80-90/100 spot shots. So it's my job to challenge them and find ways to make them miss (I like to get them to the 35-45% range in workouts. Some DL strategies we've deployed are: 1. Bad Passes (high and low, no seams, timing) 2. Different stances (Feet wide, Feet tight, lunge position, funky feet) 3. Visual Constraints (one eye closed) 4. Different basketballs (sizes, leagues, NBA vs. Europe) 5. Varied Footwork (Hop, 1,2, 1 dribble 4 steps) 6. Release Speed (Quick vs. normal vs. delayed) 7. Distance Calibration (Close, Mid-Range, Three, 40 Feet) 8. Sensory Noises (Audio Cues, Loud Music) 9. Balance/Contact These are some of the strategies we've been implementing and seen crazyyy results What are your thoughts? At what point is DL "Doing too much"? How often would you have a shooting workout be primarily Differential Learning vs. Traditional?

I like the DL approach. I think a mix of that and traditional is the best, but I feel like you can get a lot more out of doing unusual/uncomfortable things to make them comfortable and confident in any situation.
Tips
Starting my journey of training this summer with grades 5th-High School. I currently have small groups of 2-3 athletes in each group. If there are any tips anyone is willing to share I am all ears, thank you!
