Focused Tenets
Basketball mental toughness
It is often described as the ability to persist through tough circumstances and adapt seamlessly without losing confidence. Mental toughness requires a constant battle between the mind, body, and soul. Your mind must maintain complete control so that you can strategically outwit and outmaneuver your opponent. To perform at your best, you need to be in excellent shape with a well-functioning body.
Proper shooting techniques
Shooting a jump shot isn't as effortless as it may appear - it requires skill, technique, and dedication to master. Our training program provides simplified techniques that will help you improve your shooting abilities.
Basketball IQ
Basketball IQ is crucial for playing smart and making quick decisions on the court. We teach you how to think fast, see more, and apply that knowledge effectively. Developing a high basketball IQ requires awareness, anticipation, and understanding of the game's intricacies.
Defense Awareness
Offense may keep you in the game, but it's defense that wins championships. Playing defense is a challenging skill in basketball, as many athletes prioritize scoring over defending. Throughout history and across sports, few teams have become champions without a strong defensive game.
Learn the essential skills of playing defense. We cover man-to-man, zone, and full-court press strategies commonly used in middle school and high school basketball programs.
Ball Handling
Mastering ball handling is at the core of our teachings on the court. To become an exceptional player, you must excel in handling the ball. This skill empowers you to execute various moves and contribute significantly to your team's success. Being a proficient ball handler opens up opportunities for coaches to utilize you in multiple positions.
As a coach, I always look to create great ball handlers not just point guards but at all positions, it allows me to do many things with my offense. When your child leaves our program and goes back to their school team we make sure that they understand how to dribble a ball, and how to be effective when the ball is in their hands .
Challenge
The biggest challenge is when you take what you have learned through and implement it and make it a part of your game. Challenging yourself to become a better player can be a daunting task, that is why we focus on building these skills to make you a complete player .
