Event Description:
FUNDAMENTALS FIRST!!!!

The fundamentals of basketball are the MOST important thing to master because they will make you and your team better no matter what age level or team you play for.

There's a good reason that the best basketball coaches in the world spend the majority of their practices on fundamentals.
A basketball player will be faced with a variety of different situations:

  • You'll see different opponents that use different tactics (pressing, fast breaks, switching defenses, banging in the post, etc)

  • You'll face opponents that have heavily scouted you and know your offense inside and out. And you'll also face other opponents that have never seen you before.

  • You'll see a different levels of competition from youth recreation leagues and possibly all the way to professional basketball.

  • You'll play for different coaches that have very different coaching styles. Your middle school coach might like to press -- and your high school coach might have a completely different style and like to slow things down. You could literally see a dozen different offenses through your basketball career!

There are SO many different situations that coaches and players face. And the only thing that works against ALL situations, no matter what age level or team are the FUNDAMENTALS!

It's those little things that make the best teams and players. If you can master those little fundamentals, they work no matter what!

For example, by working on the fundamentals of shooting, you will get better no matter what team you play for. The fundamentals of shooting include proper foot alignment, leg bend, hand position, arm angle, follow through, and so on. Those are some of the little things that make a difference. Learn them!

The same goes for lay ups, finishing moves, foot work, post play, passing, jump stops, pivoting, blocking out, and so on.

That's why we emphasize the fundamentals and highly recommend that ALL players learn and practice them!
