There's a lot of factors which make up young players' decision about 'picking a sport', but ultimately it comes down to which sport they find the most fun and in a young player's career this session could be the difference between them sticking with basketball or going to another sport.
To make sure your players remain motivated throughout this session we open with a game of cat and mouse before progressing into a series of dribbling races and possession games.
All the games in this session relate to core basketball skills, getting players to work on dribbling at speed, passing and shooting but the key thing is that your players are enjoying themselves!
Talent wins games, but chemistry wins championships. Building a positive team culture, establishing shared values, and developing trust creates teams that exceed the sum of their parts.
Getting to the rim is only half the battle. Converting against shot blockers and help defenders requires a toolkit of creative finishes. The best scorers have multiple ways to score at the basket.
Traditional positions are becoming obsolete. Modern basketball rewards versatile players who can handle, pass, shoot, and defend across multiple positions. Developing these skills creates valuable, adaptable players.
