A lot was covered on tonight's player development call! 3 highlights that come to mind: 1. The best coaches are able to turn complexity into simplicity 2. Three training methods are the games-based approach/CLA, Technical Skills, and Feel Good/Game Shots. How do you blend the 3 in different parts of the year to maximize growth and development? 3. Mastering Teaching Shooting mechanics can separate you as a coach Great chat! @Joseph Wunder @Peniel Smythe @Toby Lewis @Lonnie Favel See y'all for the next call this Friday at 10am est!
The best practices/training sessions all have one thing in common __________. Could be the energy, communication, competition, organization, or something completely different. I'm curious to hear what stands out to everyone.
Curious what y'all feel best in right now! Let me know by voting - and then comment below with more info so we can help! Also, comment what you feel is your weakness at the moment that you want to improve!
@Clarence Claiborne What helped me with SSG's was getting thrown into the fire and doing it on the fly. The practical experience is key! Go check out the SSG course!
@Nelson Gouge Ball handling is how well you can MOVE with the ball. With that being said, get creative with your ball handling "drills." I love to play line tag or dribble knockout to get warm. This gets them moving in all directions, adding something external like tagging a teammate, WHILE having to keep the ball in their possession.
Coaches, I recently accepted a junior high coaching position with the potential to eventually step into a varsity basketball director role. My background is primarily playing and player development, so leading a full program will be new for me. What are the top 3 things you would establish now to build a successful program and system from junior high through varsity?
