There
are three main categories that are focused on throughout
the camp.
1. Aggressive Ball
Handling
2. The Science of Footwork
3. Corrective Shooting
While skill development is
good, when done with a fun & competitive mind set will ensure greater
success on the court in game situations. |
Aggressive Ball Handling
One
of the most basic building blocks in a player's development is ball
handling or dribbling. Every player must develop ball handling skills to
handle defensive pressure and aggressively attack the basket and score.
For smaller players dribbling skills are essential to move around bigger
players and create scoring opportunities. For taller players,
ball-handling skills can be the difference between becoming a very good
player and an excellent one. Having effective ball handlers is also a key
for any team offense. Solid ball handlers are needed to run the fast
break, set up the offense and avoid the defense, in other words, whether
big or small, fast or slow, |
Corrective Shooting
Every
player needs to confidently be able to shoot the ball. I have developed a
teaching method that can easily be adapted to meet the specialized
requirements for your team and those players who may need individual
attention. I never force a player into a particular form, I work on proper
shot mechanics and through subtle changes, the corrective measures are
incorporated into players style, emphasizing his or her strong points and
overcoming shooting faults quickly. |
The Science of Footwork
The
game of basketball demands explosion and lightning quick movement, as well
as deliberate movement of the ball and player. But the most important
thing is footwork. If the feet and hands are not working effectively you
cannot play. Shooting, playing defense, driving, pivoting, moving without
the ball and rebounding are movements in which correct footwork is
essential to complete the play. Drills used to develop correct footwork
can be mastered in a minimum amount of time as long as they are done with
maximum effort on an everyday basis. The more time you spend practicing
these drills, the better player you will be. It is as simple as that.
