Basketball Playbook-Advanced Fundamental Drills
by Tom Kelsey
Description
So you ready to take your game to the next level?
Looking for something to challenge you as a player or as a coach want to give your players something more?
Here is a Basketball Playbook with Advanced Fundamental Drills.
Why do we call it Advanced Fundamental Drills?
Because every time you hit the floor work on staying to the fundamentals. Even though a drill may be more challenging doesn't mean to forget your foundation.
As with any drill make sure to:
1. Go GAME SPEED. Without question, going game speed helps keep your game sharp and allows a quicker path toward improvement. Going at a quick pace best prepares you for what will happen in a game.
2. Add Competiton. Whether going another against another individual or competing with yourself, this helps keep drills energized.
3. Get Feedback. If a coach is helping you listen to their pointers on how to improve. By yourself? Video the workout and then go back and review. Even better, video and then ask someone who knows the game to give you advice.
Let's get better starting today!
