- How Can an 8-Year-Old Get Faster?
Pray out loud over players
- Don’t just say “I’ll pray for you,” actually do it in the moment
Use basketball as a ministry
- Simple things like Bible verses on shirts or devotionals before practice plant seeds
Engage parents too
- A short 5-10 minute devotional after practice speaks to both kids and parents
Master footwork first
- Use agility ladders, jumping drills, and sliding exercises before adding resistance
Teach proper running form
- Many kids don’t even know how to run efficiently, so focus on mechanics
Start light, progress later
