Basketball Guides

Start With Control

Begin with the problem the child can feel: losing the ball, travelling after a stop, avoiding the left hand, or needing practice without a hoop.

Use A Clear Progression

A guide should lead from one manageable exercise to the next. It should not ask a beginner to learn advanced moves before the basic control is steady.

Match The Setup

Driveways, safe indoor floors, walls and courts each allow different work. The guide should tell the adult what the space can support before the drill begins.
